Legal Question in Consumer Law in California

Re: Man Bites into Scone and Scone Bites Back

First, the case is not worth $1,000 in free coffee unless you have some damages. What are your damages?

Second, don't send them the tooth. You can meet with a regional manager at a local branch and show it to them. Allow them to touch it, take pictures, etc... but once you send it to them, it will be gone.

Re: Man Bites into Scone and Scone Bites Back

Well, all Seinfeld references aside (Kramer settles a case for free coffee), you may have damages above the 1k that you have asked for. I certainly would not as Mr. Sten points out, mail them the tooth.

I would be willing to discuss some of the issues concerning your case to see how I may be of assistance.

I offer prospective clients an initial consultation of 30 minutes for free.

I look forward to speaking with you.

Yours truly,

Bryan

Re: Man Bites into Scone and Scone Bites Back

I agree with Mr. Stein. Other than your reluctance to buy another scone at Starbucks (which I happen to enjoy from time-to-time without a tooth therein), how were you injured? Did you break your own molar? If not, I don't think a jury in the world would award you more than the cost of a cup or two of coffee.

Re: Man Bites into Scone and Scone Bites Back

You would be foolish to send them the evidence - you wouldn't get it back, and your case would be rendered toothless.
