Its easier and cheaper for Wal-Mart to settle for $75k, in exchange for silence from this clown, vs spending the time and legal fees to defeat him in court.

Why didn’t his wife ask to have it re bagged in two separate bags?

1) I hope this is one of those cases of an insurance company (perhaps unbeknownst to the actual "claimant") suing everyone and everything in the hopes of getting something covered;
2) How in the world does one go about proving, in court, that a plastic bag held "too many things"?

Why is he not suing La Choy and the rice vendor? If the cans and bags were not so heavy they would have killed the poor women. /s

Shop a lot at WalMart.
They have the flimsiest bags of any store I’ve seen. This purchase should have been double bagged — or in multiple bas.
This guy may have a case.

I’m shocked. Usually, the Wal-Mart cashier will triple-bag a fricking greeting card, and use a single bag for each item. I usually bag my own stuff at the store because of this.
To: kevcol
Wal-Mart tends to underbag. I have to tell them not to overload bags holding canned cat food, and to double bag all the bags containing canned goods. I have to haul everything up about 20 steps from street level~~a torn bag with stuff cascading out is a pain.

At some point, Walmart changed their bags and they're so thin now that I couldn't make it home without at least one or two ripping. I always ask them to double bag now because of this. The same thing happened with Publix, as well.
While I understand the can landed on her foot and all but how can they be sure the infection wasn't the result of the hospital or her own care of the wound?

I’m not sure which is the proper progressive response...
Mandating only small light cans of food
or
Requiring stores to provide steel toe shoes for customers

OTOH, Walmart provided shopping carts such that the plaintiff need not carry a plastic bag to her car. Her decision to forgo the cart was a contributory factor, perhaps in excess of 50%.

It is quite Amazing that a cut toe can lead to death.
She obviously did nothing to treat it before it festered
and infected her entire body.
