HBO has produced a new documentary that aired entitled “Hot Coffee.” This film discusses the now infamous case of Liebeck v. McDonald’s in which a woman spilled coffee on herself and was eventually awarded millions of dollars in compensation. The case has become a sticking point for those in favor in tort reform and has been hoisted up as an example greedy people taking advantage of the legal system in our overly litigious society by businesses and insurance companies. The documentary explores whether or not the reputation this case holds is fair and exposes how the case has been twisted to make it seem like and over the top award. “Hot Coffee” is a compelling film and has already won numerous film awards. Two trailers and more information for the film can be found at the website: www.hotcoffeethemovie.com.
