Kind of waiting for the punch line.

Dunno if they do or not. The "victim" moved to LA for her singing career and is suing in a US court.

Someone should ask Mila if Jim Beam goes well with chicken.

Q: Why did the chicken cross the road?
A: To pull a scam with the ambulance chaser.

Ah, well, I've heard reading comprehension is key. =D
Guess she needs to pay for the singing lessons.

I took it the opposite way. Agent put Plaintiff up to it for publicity purposes.
P = > 0.85 :
A generous settlement is reached before it gets to Court and the Judge can punish them for a frivolous suit, Plaintiff forgives Defendant, they recall poignant elements of their prior life in Ukraine, tears, hugs, good publicity, cue violins, exeunt stage left, leaving their respective agents to plan a duet recording session and seek gloppy songwriter to write a gloppy song about forgiveness for the past...
"You think we'll hit Platinum, Maury?"
"I dunno, Sam. Maybe Gold, but Platinum would be great, hah?"
"Who should we get to write it?"
"Manilov, maybe, or that piano player on 'Two and a half men.' I heard he's looking for work."
And the rest is non-history. Hey, Show Biz, right? Anyone remember the Fred Allen-Jack Benny pseudofeud?

Naturally, Karo is seeking damages to the tune of $5,000 to cover her therapy costs and compensation for the emotional trauma of losing a chicken as a young child.
Can she show receipts from the therapy she got?
Maybe Mila should just bring a bucket of KFC to the court.

Sounds fine, but you missed one small but crucial detail: the sentimental reunion takes place over Chicken Kiev.

^ OK, drop it to P = > 0.83 then.
But P= 1.0 for show biz feuds making $, sincere or not.

Ummm, no -- and I'm old enough to remember both of them.

Explain to me what part of "Karo is seeking damages to the tune of $5,000 to cover her therapy costs and compensation for the emotional trauma of losing a chicken as a young child" would constitute a generous settlement.
:facepalm:

stay safe.

Egad. :facepalm:, indeed.

Can a five year old (at the time of the alleged chicken theft) be considered criminally or civilly culpable of ANY crime, particularly one allegedly committed in another country, FAR outside US jurisdiction, decades ago?
Any DECENT judge would find the plaintiff and her lawyer (if she has one) guilty of misusing the court and award treble damages to the defendant - plus some hefty court costs as well.
-
But it's not about any crime. It's about FEELZ and how she has carried those FEELZ around for years.
Reading in context - apparently a dying art.
stay safe.
-
Sounds like at asking for $5000 that is keeping it within the small claims threshold so no lawyers.

Mila Kunis can steal my chicken any time she wants. ;)

So you want her to go all Lorena Bobbitt on you? :O

I'd rather she choke mine.

You do know where that thing's been, right?

I would hope he knows where his chicken has been. Her on the other hand might want to be warned.
-

She would likley just chop the head off which would not be an ideal outcome.

Yeah I would hope that's a warning to her.....
