Disagree. Anybody can sue anybody. If the case isn't thrown out at pre-trial and goes to a jury, THAT will be cause for concern.

Now the husband has a case.

I'm filing a class action lawsuit against the woman and her husband for wasting 5 minutes of my life reading the article and typing this response. Anyone want to join me?

I going to sue and name the woman in the suit because I had to read about umpires whining about how long they spent reading the article.

I'm not defending her lawsuit, just saying there's more to this than has been reported. As usual, the media has jumped on the story about a Little Leaguer being sued.

This woman received multiple fractures and reconstructive surgery. She hasn't been able to settle with her insurance company and was facing the deadline for filing a suit under NJ's personal injury law.

It's all just legal maneuvering.
