[QUOTE="Rick Kent, post: 672328, member: 55129"] This is a great theoretical discussion of the premise "proximate cause" and "contributory negligence". Is the person using a barbecue in his home for heat at fault and negligent for his and his families deaths? Yes. Is a utility worker slacking on the job partially negligent? That question will be answered by a jury of his peers if and when a lawsuit is filed, all of your opinions not withstanding. The law is interesting, especially in civil cases. 6 or 12, legally uneducated citizens who were not smart enough to dodge jury duty will decide your fate... And for those that have served and are offended by "uneducated", I mean no legal training or no experience working in a field that is involved in the legal system. If you had legal training you would be struck for cause from the jury pool. [/QUOTE]
