Re: Michael Thomas suing for $1 million

Not that it matters... Is it good value to rent a facility for $60000 a month to refresh and recuperate an ailing ankle ? Was cell coverage not sufficient in this impressive abode ? Wifi sucked too? Besides what's in the article, what basis is there for such a lawsuit if the rental was $60000 a month? Begs to question what else happened that we don't know yet that motivated MT to file this.

If you want your $60,000 deposit back and the owner refuses the best way to do it is sue for more. People seldom sue for near as much as they seriously hope to receive. I can easily see him settling for that.

As a landlord and also from a former tenant perspective, there has to be a justification/proof for an amount to sue for. You can't just make up a number just because you think it's a strategy or whatever. You'll be laughed out of the courtroom. It's not like a defamation or some other similar suit. So there is something yet undisclosed to support an amount like that. It's more likely the media has yet to divulge additional details. Brees in his suit with the jeweler had common sense basis for his claim. We shall see with MT.

The basis was that it somehow screwed up his training routine. I can't see him winning that or even being able to associate an amount, so at least he can get the deposit back, which may be the goal to begin.

Right... we are not privy yet to the details of the suit... which was my point.
