Impose Fines For Filing Frivolous Lawsuits

This petition was published by Henry Hart on Nov 22, 2009

We, the undersigned, Petition the Congress of the United States, to enact legislation to impose a $25,000 fine against anyone who files a frivolous lawsuit.

A frivolous lawsuit would be defined as any lawsuit that is filed without documented proof of a loss or verifyable medical impairment that has directly resulted from the actions or proper use of products of someone else. Any losses or injuries resulting from an individuals own actions, shall be deemed as frivolous and that individual shall be fined $25,000.

Furthermore, any attorney who files a lawsuit that is determined to be frivolous, shall be fined $5000 per incident and shall be held further responsible by imposing a maximum limit of filing 3 (three) frivolous lawsuits in any given 12 month period. Any attorney that exceeds that maximum shall lose their practicing privileges for the next 12 months.
