A Downey restaurant owner who was recently sued because his bathroom mirror was mounted 2 inches too high has joined a new national campaign named Faces of Lawsuit Abuse. The campaign is targeted at raising awareness of allegedly frivolous and abusive lawsuits because of their affect on small business and individuals. The Downey restaurant owner paid to have a vandalized bathroom mirror replaced and was promptly sued when someone found it was two inches too high as stipulated by the Americans with Disabilities Act. Once aware of the improper instillation, the owner fixed the mirror but it was too late because 3 individuals had visited the restaurant 27 times over a three month period. The individuals claimed the mirror inflicted damages on them each time they revisited the restaurant.
