[Update] Being sued for helping a choking victim. (OR) : legaladvice

Authored by old.reddit.com and submitted by raspberryseltzer

TL;DR of last post: Got a letter from a firm to prepare for a lawsuit for battery to someone i preformed the Heimlich on.

Well, I took y’alls advice and went back to the restaurant, i spent about an hour and a half waiting and then speaking with a shift manager who called the general manager who called the owner, and they swore up and down that no one had come to ask for a tape or anything of the sort.

Then i started looking for defense attorneys but I wasn’t sure exactly how to proceed, honestly this week i’ve been mortified and really on edge. Finally when i told my friends about everything one of them fessed up to the fact that it was actually them and they made it up as some kind of prank. Pretty twisted joke, I wasn’t laughing. I’m pretty pissed and seriously reconsidering my relationship with him. I appreciate everyone’s support, excluding the people who made fun of my mother’s death or tried to figure out where i lived.

TL;DR: Friend made a fake letter from a law firm, soon he might be able to sue me for battery

People were making fun of his mother's death? That's awful. Right up there with this stupid prank. Dude did not deserve that, especially since all he did was try to save a person from choking. He's good people and we should leave his mother out of it.
