43. anyone can FILE a lawsuit for anything
but unless it is found to have merit, it won't be allowed to go forward.

i always hear stories of ridiculous lawsuits being used as "proof" that trial lawyers and plantiffs are out of control. but i would rather hear about these kind of things knowing that they are, more often than not, strawmen than to have caps put on damages caused by groups that truly deserved to pay for the damages they have done.
