He thinks he shouldn't have been shot because it's not his fault, he's addicted to meth (nevermind that he shot the homeowner).

Shooting armed "burglar" -- BURGLAR? sorry, that's a frickin' ROBBER -- is no time to be saving ammunition.

Deficient application of lead, right there.
Leone said he was able to wriggle his hands loose before convincing Cutrufelli to let him use the bathroom. He then grabbed one of the five handguns from his bedroom and spotted Cutrufelli in his closet. Cutrufelli, in turn, allegedly fired his gun, striking Leone in the jaw. Leone then fired back before Cutrufelli wrestled his gun away and put the gun to Leone’s head and pulled the trigger — but no bullets remained in the gun.
Bang, bang, bang, click...click... huh? what's wrong with this? <struggle for gun, young guy takes it away from old guy>... more clicks.
Gorram California magazines. :mad:

Given the way courts are these days nothing is certain, but a police lieutenant in Chicago once told me that the next of kin of a deceased burglar has a substantially lower chance of prevailing in a lawsuit than a lawsuit filed by a burglar who survives.
-
Burglar? What "burglar" would that be? I don't see no effing burglar.
Dude was an armed robber.

This is true.
Also sadly, the lawsuit seems to have been instigated by his father. That's some good parenting there.
-
Good point . . . how about "Home Invader" or "Armed Home Invader?"
-
I'm curious to see what happens with the lawsuit, especially because it is in Marin County. I don't think that would fly up here in Mendocino County.

Well, that's good to know.

In sane world the judge would dismiss the suit as being frivolous and then fine the attorney for wasting the court's time.

Dang it, you have to change that avatar, I can't even read it in ghetto voice with that avatar right next to it.

Not his fault that he's addicted to Meth. We should be paying him for his misfortune. :D
-
I'd be happy to pay him....
About 15 cents worth of lead at a time....

It's getting harder amd harder for judges to dismiss even crap lawsuits without facing both appeals and disciplinary action with the state baar for denying people their acess to the courts... [barf]

As it happens, one of the other propsitions on Arizona's ballot this year is to eliminate the possiblility of someone injured while commiting a crime on private property from sueing the owner. Prop 114, I believe.

And yet the State judge up in Montana had no difficulty dismissing the MFFA case with prejudice. :facepalm:
-
This one needs to be dismissed with prejudice and a bitch slap to the
lawyer tile crawling slug that brought the suit.
-
Just goes to show that, as I tell people all the time, anyone can sue anyone for anything. Whether they can actually win and collect is something entirely different. But the defendant still has to go through the trouble of defending against even a crap suit.
As an aside, I agree that the homeowner should file suit against the burglar. Make it a counter-suit, and this will allow all of the evidence to hit the jury, and will allow the jury to award him damages.

Should we start having Grand Juries for civil cases?
