WHAT DOES A COWBOY, WHO RIDES THE RODEO CIRCUIT GET . . . ALL THE BONES IN HIS BODY BROKEN, AND A DIVORCE! LOL. FUCKIN' LOVE'EM!
The Cinderella Curfew that Led to a $20 Million Dollar Loss!
CONTEXTUAL FRAMEWORK AND FACTUAL FOUNDATION
Now, I am not the attorney on the case, nor is personal injury, my specialty area of law, but I did do well in my torts, class, and worked for, my professor, as his, legal writing and research assistant, and ran, across, personal injury, issues and squared off against the defense bar, at the Utah State Legislature, representing the Utah Attorney General's Office, Health Division, on recovering, payments for, law suits, involving, under or non-insured, drivers and passengers, involved in accidents, who, later recovered, large settlements, and demanded that the ambulance chasing attorneys, who make all the money, in the law, return, and repay, the portion of medical bills, and coverage that the state, covered, for the person, involved in the accident. The defense bar hated me . . . I think I have been hated, my whole legal career, by one entity or another, just enforcing the law! FUCK?
But, the point I want to make is, that, I may be getting a filtered, short, cowboy, abbreviated, version of the facts, that might have left something out, that either he didn't know was relevant, or, that, was critical to the amount of money, that was involved, other than, a very greedy, plaintiff, who was not injured, nor was his wife, but, their 80 year old aunt, sitting in the back seat of the car, when, cowboy's son, hydroplaned, and skipped over the median, hit the car . . . the coroner, said the old lady, may have been dead, at the time of the crash, or he believed that they were on their way to the hospital with her, at the time of the accident, that, merely, rocked her, seat belt on, into the door, and back again . . . now, that could have been violently, or just a bump?
THE LAW IS ABOUT, DEFINITIONS AND HAIR SPLITTING!
I used to handle, all the DUI cases, for the DMV, as an assistant attorney general, and in all my time, I had never heard of, a CINDERELLA CURFEW, but, that doesn't mean, that I wasn't just dealing with the hard core, obvious, DUI's and not the kid stuff, or the lesser, infractions. So, what happened, best I can understand it, having just met this man, and heard his side of the story, was, that his son, and some friends had been to a party or dance, and he consumed, a small amount of alcohol, in a plastic cup, but on the way, home, he loaded, 9 kids in the front of his truck, or his dad's, who, is a tee toddler, because his mother and two sisters, died of alcohol related, deaths, so, the small amount, would be reasonable, for this kid, raised, by this cowboy. But, the fact that he had any alcohol in his system at all, put the cops on alarm, and they did this deal, that the boy could still drive, they would not, charge him, but, he had to be in all nights, off the roads, by a 9:00 PM curfew, for some amount of time.
The son, 17, I believe, he said, also, road, rodeo, and was helping, pick out some horses for an event the next day, and he forgot about, the time and the curfew, called his dad, and told him, he was going to be a bit late, but would be home soon, the kid was a great student, responsible, and dad, forgot about the Cinderella Curfew, and, on the way home, the kid, got caught in a bad rainstorm, and he hydroplaned, off his side of the freeway, and went through the median, hitting oncoming traffic in a head-on. Now, given the fact, that the couple in the front seat was not, badly injured, in fact, not injured at all, leads me to believe, that auntie in the back seat, was bumped, rather than, violently thrown, against the side panel of the door . . . but, maybe nobody knows.
The aunt died, as I said, and the father, was, sued, son dead, for, not having control over the boy, and holding him to the curfew. Eventually, what happened, was, that, after three times to court, the cowboy, stopped the judge and said, can I say something . . . whatever I can do, to alleviate these people's pain, I am willing to do . . . AFTER THESE MONEY GRUBBERS, GOT THROUGH WITH HIM, HE HAD SIX CENTS TO HIS NAME . . . THEY TOOK HIS RANCH, 24,000 ACRES, 600 HEAD OF CATTLE HAD TO BE SOLD, ALL HIS FURNITURE, THE SHERIFFS EVEN COUNTED THE UNDERWEAR IN HIS DRAWERS!
