We live in times filled with stupid people crying out for any stupid excuses to hide their mistakes, be at loggerheads with others for minute feuds, and blame others for their minor shortcomings, excusing multi-national companies and sometimes even the government as well.
Stupid people will go to any extent to accomplish their so-called idea of earning a few quick bucks and the United States have plenty of them. In the name of lawsuits and register their names in the dumbest person of all list.
Here are a few of America’s dumbest & hilarious lawsuits for today’s trivia. You may find some of the cases extremely funny, but interestingly these cases got heard in the court:

2. Australian Foster Beer got sued in NY

6. Wait. What is this case?
A bank robber shot after pointing a fully loaded gun at the deputy sues the County for his huge medical expenses incurred after being shot by him. The most frivolous of lawsuits claimed till now and that too by an inmate, who is a criminal in the eyes of the law but claims for the damages caused to him by filing a lawsuit against the law.
7. Fraud woman or a victim?

8. An alien Israeli case deserves to be part of this list, an Emoji lawsuit 
An Israeli couple was sued for $2000 for using emoji. Yeah, you heard it right. The couple contacted a landlord online after searching for an apartment. Due to their excessive usage of emojis online, the landlord presumed the couple was interested in the apartment. But later when the landlord found out about the non-interest shown by the couple he sued them as he lost a month’s rent due to pulling off his rent add from the website.
