KY Restaurant Owner: O.J. Should Kill Lawsuit Plans

If O.J. Simpson tries to legally pursue the restaurant owner who banned him from his place, the Goldman family will have his back. Kentucky restaurant owner Jeff Ruby was on "The Big Show With Steve Mason & John Ireland" on ESPN Radio last night, saying, "I got a phone call from the Goldman lawyers, and he's not going to be able to do this lawsuit anyway, because they've already taken preemptive action in case there is a claim." Ruby says any money Simpson might win would go to the Goldmans, who would then give it back to Ruby.

Simpson's attorney, Yale Galanter, said earlier this week that he feels the banishment was racially motivated and had nothing to with ex-football star being accused of murder. Galanter, according to the AP, said he would pursue the matter further and might try to go after the restaurant's liquor license.

Ruby would then have to again decide whether he wanted to serve the juice.

How can someone with no money to give the Goldmans (OJ Simpson) have lawyers on retainer? Something doesn’t add up here!

Perhaps OJ can lie in wait for his Lawsuit Plans and then cut off the head of his Lawsuit Plans (and their companion) with a giant knife.

Plenty of lawyers will take a case w/o retainer if they think they can get something out it.

O.J. seems to be campainging to be the first black man to be lynched in America since the civil rights movement and not for being black.

It seems to me that a simple "Management reserves the right to refuse service to anyone." sign would just about cover this.

What a bunch of bogus garbage. So sick of all this “racial” crapola.

The restaurant served Michael Jordan, FGS, and many will say he’s “blacker” than old lite-skinned OJ (kind of like original natural Michael Jackson vs. ‘80s Michael Jackson)!

The courts exempted O.J.s football retirement money from the Goldman settlement. Why? I have no idea.

We need some sort of legislation that allows defendants of ridiculous lawsuits to receive compensation for their fees and troubles.

The courts exempted O.J.s football retirement money from the Goldman settlement. Why? I have no idea.

My understanding is that it wasn't the courts, but that Florida law exempts retirement pensions from being attached as payment for civil judgments. That's why OJ moved from California to Florida.

LOL - good one!

Why would OJ or anyone else want to eat at the "KY Restaurant"?

[ken5050]

If you can’t take the heat, you don’t get to eat..

[Dumpster Baby]

If it don’t fit, don’t have a sit.

[FreeKeys]

This magnet ought to say: "We reserve the right to NOT serve refuse!"

[Lokibob]

You are probably right.

Well, I ate there as a young fella...before I learned about "the order of things". I also dined at Redwings, but only once.

You kinda learn this stuff as you get older.

[FreeKeys]

I don't think you quite get the "thrust" of his question.

LOL! Good one.

Too bad the restaurant guy doesn’t own all the golf courses. :’)
