Frivolous lawsuits happen in Russia as well:
“In October 2005, as a result of an examination by a gastroenterologist, she was diagnosed with a chronic condition whose main symptom is heart burn,” her lawyer, Alexey Monakhov, said.In a landmark ruling, two Russian courts agreed that Coca Cola had failed to warn of the potential health risks of drinking too much Coke and awarded Miss Kashuba £62.

Well, you drink lots of Coke, you get fat from all the sugar, and the weight increases risk of heartburn.
Kind of makes sense….
Too funny. A friend of mine would like to sue expensive clothing stores: they routinely mark sizes down so that we are flattered and think that we are thinner than we are. This keeps some women from loosing weight.
