Re: Mote tort outrages
On a lark I tried to find more info about the Oakland bank robber anecdote in the OP and all I could find was the same blurb on various conservative blog and tort reform advocacy sites. In fact 4/5 of the people who posted that blurb credited it to the obviously biased ATRA (American Tort Reform Association), but oddly even ATRA is no longer carrying that story. This is the citation I found at several sites: (Source: ATRA: Candelario v. City of Oakland, No. 628960-3 Cal. App. Dep't Super. Ct. 1987), but I couldn't find anything at Findlaw or anywhere else.
