I can't imagine the life facing this woman, but if I dived into a pool during a party and broke my neck I wouldn't even think of suing the houseowner.

Why did the CPS even let this proceed?

Nothing to do with them, it was a civil case.

Common sense has indeed prevailed.

You have to take responsibility for your own actions and diving into a private pool with an unknown depth is very foolhardy.

A rarity. A 'common sense' Judge in our downhill country.

Sadly this is only one tick, against the increasing number of crosses that have been catapulting us down the road like Lemmings in following the litigious Yanks.

It's a shame that neither of the threads have particularly informative titles, the sort of thing that leads to reposts.
