Wal-Mart and TicketMaster Not Liable for Nosebleed Beach Boys Tickets - Mierzwa v. Wal-Mart & TicketMaster
Thursday, July 17, 2014
Case summary courtesy of R.R.:
"This lawsuit had all the elements of a heroic quest. Well, almost all of them. The long and short of it is that the plaintiff wanted Beach Boys tickets, and went to a ticket kiosk at Wal-Mart, and no Wal-Mart Associate was there to help him at 10:00 sharp, so he got lousy tickets."
The Complaint was a big hit at the trial level, being separately characterized as "frivolous", "patently frivolous" and "the most frivolous complaint I have ever seen." Apparently, our judiciary has never had lawn seats in the rain.
