Candi wrote about a mother suing Marilyn Manson for providing her daughter with cocaine, and the daughter’s later death after using it.
She writes “when a drunk gets behind the wheel and causes an accident, the drunk can’t sue the bar or the bartender for serving him alcohol – that would be ridiculous.”
Ridiculous or not, yes, the drunk can sue the bar AND the bartender. Can, have, and won. I worked at a restaurant where it happened here in Houston. After learning about the bartender being sued I was very careful about cutting my customers off if they were going a bit overboard.
