That doesn’t sound very frivolous to me. Unless the dog barely nipped her, not even breaking skin.

Then that must mean that the dog wasn’t putting out a 100% effort while doing his job.
I wonder how Ms. Stark explains nerve damage (though she seems to be a very nervy person) when she cannot demonstrate she was actually bitten and had no medical evidence to present. I cannot envision someone being bitten by a canine not seeking medical attention. Her case was clearly frivolous and not only was she rightly sanctioned, her attorney should also have been sanctioned.
Not the point. You don’t sue the dog, even if he tore an arm off... you sue his owner.
