Interesting development.

Our standard child waiver is two sided - one side is in [more] plain english and is to be signed by the minor. The other side is more complex and is to be signed by a Parent OR Legal Guardian. It is interesting to me, that a parent wouldn't be able to establish what they believe to be the best interest of the child - could it be that in this case it was a weekend-warrior father, and the child's mother [post divorce] is suing? I mean - it said:
Quote:
The child’s father had signed a “release and waiver of liability, assumption of risk, and indemnity agreement,” according to the ruling. However a representative of the child’s estate stepped forward and filed a lawsuit for wrongful death against the park’s operators.
So, the father isn't involved with the child's estate? Or, is the father just out money-grubbing after he signed for his child and found a loop-hole?

Certainly a case for me to watch....
