MickyD Didn't

Employees at McD's should have checked to make sure the guy didn't get cheese on his quarter pounder. They didn't, even after the guy told them numerous times that he is highly allergic to the fake stuff. He took the bag, and, knowing he was highly allergic to cheese, and that there was enough possibility that cheese may end up on his burger that he felt compelled to stress the need for lack of cheese, he took a bite... without even checking to see if his explicit orders were followed.

He goes into a severe allergic reaction and winds up in the hospital. McDonald's, recognizing that they screwed up an order, offered to pay for their share of the mix-up. Then, they agreed to pay the full amount.

That wasn't good enough for this fellow. No, if a woman can catch a windfall for ignoring common sense and hurting herself with some hot coffee, then why can't a guy get paid to be neglectful of his own medical condition?

I agree with The Educated Shoprat. This attorney better have some credibility to his argument or he should face some sanctions. I would imagine McDonald's McLawyer will probably fix up his own supersized McMotion to sanction.
