It's deja vu all over again: A California woman is suing McDonald's, claiming its hot coffee burned her. And it's deja vu in more ways than one: Paulette Carr's case recalls that of famed 1990s predecessor Stella Liebeck, along with a case filed just months ago by Californian Joan Fino. Fino says her groin area was burned by the hot coffee in August 2012; Carr similarly said her injuries occurred in 2012, specifically on Jan. 12, after she ordered coffee from a Los Angeles McDonald's drive-thru. The description of her injuries is not so detailed, though, reports the Los Angeles Times.
Per her lawsuit, filed this week, "The lid for the hot coffee was negligently, carelessly, and improperly placed on the coffee cup ... resulting in the lid coming off the top of the coffee at the window, causing the hot coffee to spill onto the plaintiff." No specifics of what happened next are provided though. Equally vague: Carr is seeking unspecified monetary damages.
