Even as odd lawsuit stories go, this underexplained little account of a product liability claim in Canada stands out.

C$10,000/minute seems a little steep to me. Could I have that itemized?
The first two minutes were the worst: they are worth 25k each, anonymous sources say.
Does this woman have a lawyer? It does not appear so. This post really belongs on Overlawyered’s stepchild, The PeopleFilingDumbClaimsNoLawyerWouldEverFile.com blog.
