    The restaurant was directly responsible for the woman’s death. The husband went after Disney because it was in Disney Springs and the website said the restaurant worked with allergies. It’s more the ghoulish lawyers

      If I recall, Disney Springs is outside of the parks, basically an outside mall-type area with a bunch of third-party shops and restaurants. Disney is plenty evil, but they’re just the landlord in this situation.

        A landlord that owns a streaming service who tries to argue that usage of that streaming service allows them to not be sued by fucking up your food order.

          Their other legal argument made more sense… They have nothing to do with food preparation done by one of the tenants.

          I have less issues with landlords with commercial tenants… A lot of retailers do not want to own real estate or maintain properties. Residential landlords, on the other hand…

        I don’t know any other landlords that advertise and vouch their clients on their website.

        I bet cafeterias or food courts have gotten sued for the same thing.

          You don’t? The malls, outlets, and high-end shopping centers around here certainly maintain a website as well as signage for their tenants.

          If someone stopped at a Rest Stop and Baskin Robins errantly put tree nuts in their dish, I don’t of any legal precident making the Rest Stop owner liable.

            It’s the fact they vouched for the resturaunt.

            I don’t mean having a sign or directory. I mean saying specifically “the BR at our rest stop is allergy friendly” vs “our rest stop has a basken robbins, check their page for details”
