Negligence?

Legal action o’ the day (from the WSJ):

John B____ v. Vasamth Bethala, Manager; LQ12 LLC dba LaQuinta Inn & Suites; James River Ins. Co., No. 2011-12066 F (22d Dist. Jud. Ct. La., filed Apr. 7, 2011).

Negligence action. While the plaintiff was staying on the third floor of the defendants’ hotel, a wasp flew into his room. While the plaintiff was attempting to kill the wasp, he fell out of the window.

Shame it was only the third floor and he survived. Some people don’t deserve oxygen – much less the ability to sue.
