Product liability lawsuit of the day.

It’s true – 52 year old LA resident Macrida Patterson sues underwear company Victoria’s Secret for a defective thong. Now before your mind goes wandering to all ways one could incur crazy thong injuries, I will spoil your fantasies by telling you that the thong injury was to her eye. Our sue-happy lass Macrida Patterson was trying on a thong, when a decorative metallic piece came loose, flew off and struck her in the eye causing permanent corneal damage.

Listen up all you lazy-ass litigious people making the world a worse place for the rest of us – this type of lawsuit is called a product liability lawsuit. Product liability lawsuits are there because there is a product liability law ensuring that manufacturers be responsible for their wares. There are tons of product liability cases and lawsuits – mostly because of defective product lawyers who know that the product doesn’t even have to be defective for there to be a product liability lawsuit. Manufacturers must make sure to protect consumers and if necessary provide warnings when potential hazards accompany specific products.

The Victoria Secret thong in question is called the “low rise v string.” It us unsure whether Victoria’s Secret will provide warnings on their “Sexy Little Thing” line that their underwear might turn into slingshots in dressing rooms.

In the meantime one might consider wearing protective goggles in the change room.

Macrida Patterson’s defective product attorney, Jason Buccat, claims that the injury was caused by the metal decoration’s “design problem” and that the eye injury, which caused Patterson to miss a few days of work, will be “affecting her the rest of her life.”

Defective product lawyers can be found advertising their wares on the backs of telephone books and on late night TV where other classy acts can be found.
