(15,320 posts)If you file suit against someone based on this law, if they fail to show up in court to defend themselves, you WIN automatically.
At least that is how I read it. Apparently, you, or the person you accuse don't even need to live in the same county. I guess someone from 2,000 miles away could sue you in their county, and if you don't show for the hearing, they get $10K plus their legal fees.
Oh, and that 10K is the minimum
So, say you're a Texas resident, but you temporarily are working in another state, i guess you could get sued because someone thinks you gave a women at 6.5 weeks a ride to a clinic.
I wonder if any women had miscarriages during the deep freeze in TX this year. Can they sue the energy companies, or all the employees at a power transfer station?
Oh well...ELECTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES!!!!
