Because they have not been convicted.

Has it been proven in a court of law that Reggie's was the where she had her drinks? Is there the proof that the Lyft driver did in fact strike and kill her?

Sure the evidence is all there to call out Reggies & the driver; but at the same time the evidence is out there that those attackers raped her. Hell, isn't there a statement on record from one of the people in the car admitting to it?

That doesn't answer why some kid bartending on the patio should be sued for serving a girl with a wristband on.

Madison worked at Reggie's at one point. It's a good chance she got a wristband from the person at the door because she knew them and if not just them, the bartenders would serve someone they knew.

Thank you.. That's been bugging me this whole thread. Civil cases are a "preponderance of the evidence".

Does this exception apply to a bar or restaurant or just at personal residence?

If I sued everybody it would have still been the state paying for my medical bills dumbass.


I don't have a dog in this race but I don't understand this statement. When someone files a PI lawsuit, medical expenses are definitely part of the damages, along with lost wages, etc... The defendant (insurer) would be on the hook for that, not the state. Unless I'm totally missing something. Which wouldn't surprise me

That's what this suit is about. All of this will come out.

This question was in response to my questioning why only the attackers are getting the "allegedly" treatment but not Reggie's or the Lyft driver. Bosie then responded with the attackers get the allegedly because they have not been convicted (which is true).

So, I asked:

Reggie's said that she used a fake ID to enter, which should be pretty easy to prove or disprove. I remember reading that she worked there for a very short period of time. Even if that is true, it's not a requirement that you know the age of every coworker. I don't know how you find 10+ people that work at the bar that should be sued for what happened that night.

The MIP law contradicts this.

Negligence is not an excuse, especially when the result leads to the death of an individual. If all the bouncer did was look at the ID and make sure the picture was accurate, that's not enough. IDs come with hidden markings to ensure that they're not easily duplicated. There's even more scrutiny against Reggie's based on their reputation.

Ivar's has ID scanners. I'm not sure exactly what the machines do, but it's definitely a lot more than just a quick scan of the DOB and photo. At my old job, I ran a fake ID through our scanner and it pulled up exactly the info that was listed on the card. I did every single thing I had to make sure I covered my arse in the event of something happening. Cameras watch us to make sure we did every preventative measure. If a good fake got passed us with the system we had in place, there wasn't more we could do except deny service based on what we felt was not a safe situation.

Again, the negligence falls upon the procedure of them checking IDs, which I can guess with 99% certainty that Reggie's hardly did the bare minimum.

The full statue states the exemption in which you can have possession of an alcohol beverage if you're accompanied by a parent/legal guardian.

What you posted is just what happens if someone under 21 has possession of alcohol outside of their listed exemptions.

Reggie's has ID scanners too, as does every Tigerland bar. Fake ID's now a days are made specifically to pass those scanners.

So you just admitted that scanners, like the one's that are used at Reggie's and other bars, can be manipulated and at not 100% fool proof?

When is the last time you went to Reggie's that you can say this with 99% certainty?

But let's say for some reason you are right. Let's say that the bouncer for some reason didn't use the scanner and just gave her a wristband. How does that mean that 9 other workers should also be sued?
