I'd really like to see that case! and the theories that they sued on if it really did happen.

I can't see how a ref could be sued for this and have it sustained. especially if the girl continued play after she was told to take the earring off.

Under negligence (which is how most refs are sued) it's because we breached our duty of care that we owed the player/players. I cant see what duty would be breached by telling her to take it off. Now if we told her to take it off and she did not play the rest of the game maybe.... but I still think it's a stretch. We would be more negligent and more culpable if she played with them in.

If you know the case or who the parties were let me know. I'd like to look that one up (hopefully there's a published opinion)
Where's Mel Narol???
