Nicоle аttended а birthdаy party at Zоe’s hоuse, where a little boy asked for a drink. Nicole poured two drinks from a pitcher near Zoe’s kitchen sink: one for herself and one for the boy. As the boy began drinking, Nicole lifted her cup to her mouth. At that moment, the boy screamed, causing Nicole to drop her cup before she could drink from it. The pitcher looked like it contained fruit juice, but it actually contained a caustic, lye-based dish detergent that permanently injured the boy’s esophagus. The boy’s family sued Zoe for negligence and won when a jury ruled that it was quite careless of Zoe to keep detergent in a pitcher. Distraught about the incident, Nicole has recurring nightmares. Although Nicole is not a member of the boy’s family, Nicole also sues Zoe for negligence, seeking to recover for mental anguish. Nicole probably will win her lawsuit.
