Walmart's Lawyers Run Afoul Of The Public Blaming Tracy Morgan For Injuries In Deadly Bus Crash

Tracy Morgan

Lawyers are sometimes oblivious to public opinion regarding cases, single-mindedy focused on winning at all cost. However, in doing so, lawyers sometimes end up doing more harm than good to their clients' interests. Case in point, lawyers for Walmart are blaming comedian/actor, Tracy Morgan, for serious injuries he sustained in a fatal accident.

Walmart's attorney, Jeffrey O'Hara of LeClairRyan, wrote in court pleadings that Morgan's injuries, "Were caused, in whole or in part, by plaintiffs' failure to properly wear an appropriate available seatbelt restraint device." In short, Walmart's lawyers are blaming Morgan for his injuries in the crumpled van. 

As a result, the public is ripping Walmart in feedback sections of many websites over their lawyers' insensitive, callous claims. It is damaging Walmart's name with the public in acts that are "pennywise but pound foolish." The bad publicity it is creating is not worth it to the company.

A Walmart driver, who had been on the road for too many hours in a row, driving 770 miles, slammed a massive 18-wheeler truck into Morgan's Mercedes limo van carrying several people, including a friend and fellow comedian, who died in the horrible wreck.

At the end of the day, Walmart's overworked driver, who was on the road 24 hours straight, carelessly and negligently slammed into Morgan's limo bus, a vehicle a mere fraction of the size of the 18-wheeler truck. The absence of a seatbelt is not to blame.

Walmart Faults Tracy Morgan for Not Wearing Seatbelt During Car Accident (Exclusive)

On Monday, Walmart delivered its answer in a New Jersey federal court to 30 Rock actor Tracy Morgan's lawsuit arising from a six-car accident on the New Jersey Turnpike. Among nine affirmative defenses, Walmart says that injuries "were caused, in whole or in part, by plaintiffs' failure to properly wear an appropriate available seatbelt restraint device." 

Morgan was among several people injured who are now suing Walmart for negligence. In particular, their lawsuit filed in July questions whether Walmart driver Kevin Roper was fatigued at the time of the crash. According to the suit, Roper had commuted 700 miles from his home in Jonesboro, Ga., to a Walmart facility in Smyrna, Del., before beginning his shift.

Singer Chris Brown Arrested And Jailed After Breaking A Man’s Nose For Trying To Enter His Tour Bus

Chris Brown and longtime lawyer Mark Geragos

R&B singer Chris Brown, 24 and his bodyguard Chris Hollosy, 35 were arrested and jailed yesterday in Washington, DC, as it is alleged two men engaged in photo-bombing, whilst the singer took pictures with female fans. The two women tried to enter Brown’s tour bus but were turned away.

The two men engaged in some sort of activity regarding Brown’s tour bus, via conduct branded "trespass" which led Brown to allegedly state, "I’m not into this gay s---, but I am into boxing." Reports indicate Brown was arrested for punching one of the men in the face, who tried to enter the tour bus.

Entering someone’s tour bus, especially at 4:50 AM, without permission is no different from entering a person’s car or home without authorization. That’s private property. Brown has taken pictures with male fans before. Why did he object to these two photobombers. What was said that led him to make the gay remark.

Did they sexually proposition Brown, who has maintained that he is straight (after all, I've seen it firsthand where certain Hollywood cult members repeatedly send people to proposition straight industry members in trying to turn them gay, whilst attempting to groom them for their own sexual purposes, but more on that in a later Judiciary Report article, which will name names and leave you speechless).

Brown’s probation could be revoked in California, where he would face 4-years in jail, due to the 2009 Rihanna domestic violence case, for which he was given 5-years probation. Given the situation with overcrowding, in the event he is sent to jail, Brown would serve half of that sentence.

Brown’s girlfriend Karrueche Tran did not take the news well. She commented on Twitter, "Hate waking up to bad news" and "what is wrong with some of y'all? Did y'all parents not love y'all enough? Y'all gotta quit w this negative s*** 24 f******* 7."

Lindsay Lohan Has Become A Groupie For Max From The Wanted

Lindsay Lohan

Lindsay Lohan has gone from the heights of fame starring in major studio films such as "Mean Girls" to bombed TV movies like "Liz And Dick" to being a groupie for up-and-coming boyband, The Wanted. Reach for the stars Lindsay (sarcasm).

Lohan was arrested last week, for the umpteenth time, as she punched a woman in a New York night club, due to the fact Max from The Wanted was trying to date her and not drunk as a skunk Lindsay. A few hours ago, TMZ threw Lindsay under the bus about her latest fail. 

The site basically indicated Lindsay is stalking Max and did her best to get backstage at the group's show to get close to him. This prompted Max to state he is not interested in her (I take it he wants his life herpes free) but she can ride with the band on the tour bus. 

Knowing how desperate Lohan is, by the end of the day she will have slept with the tour bus driver, bodyguard, roadie and the guy at the gas station refueling the bus. Seriously, why chase a man that is showing he is not interested. What is Lohan going to do, give Max a roofie.

Another Woman Beaten On A Public Bus Signaling A Regrettable Trend That Must Stop

19-year-old Ernestine Parker says she was attacked and beaten for 8 city blocks by two men on a public bus in Maryland. Parker stated no one on the bus would help her and the driver kept going without stopping during the incident.

This marks the second high profile beating of a public bus patron, as Shidea Lane was beaten by a city bus driver after she allegedly hit him. The Judiciary Report hopes this alarming trend of violence on bus transport in America will stop, as it is unnecessary, dangerous, a safety hazard and will breed costly lawsuits that can be avoided.

Warning: video contains violence and profanity

 

Shidea Lane, the woman, who was on the receiving end of an uppercut punch by a bus driver in Ohio, spoke out about the incident that saw her physically beaten and tossed off a public bus in America. Lane got into an argument with the bus driver and some witnesses stated she hit him.

The alleged blow led to the elderly bus driver decking Lane and booting the woman from the bus. Lane refuses to comment on those claims and the bus driver has been removed from his post. Naturally, the bus company will end up on the receiving end of a lawsuit, over conduct precipitated by Lane and made much worse by the bus driver's violent actions. If it is proven Lane hit the driver first, he may sue or countersue her, claiming it was self-defense.
