Last October, a mass shooting took place at a concert in Las Vegas. Stephen Paddock, the shooter, killed 58 people and injured more than 850. MGM Resorts International owns the property where the shooting happened: Mandalay Bay and the Route 91 Harvest festival venue. Several lawsuits were filed against the company after the shooting stating that MGM Resorts could have and should have done more to protect its victims from the assault.

Now, MGM Resorts International has responded by filing a lawsuit claiming that the company isn’t liable for the injuries and deaths that occurred. “No MGM Party attempted to commit, knowingly participated in, aided, abetted, committed, or participated in any conspiracy to commit any act of terrorism,” the lawsuit states. MGM maintains that they followed all the necessary safety precautions for the event. It was approved by the Department of Homeland Security.

Congratulations to Stephanie Javarauckas!

Stephanie will be attending the University of Connecticut’s School of Law this fall.

Our essay topic for this period was on drunk driving and how, as individuals, we can take efforts to decrease the amount of drunk driving accidents that occur every year. Stephanie’s essay was extremely well-crafted and offered unique, actionable solutions.

These past few months have been a whirlwind at Thomas Law Offices. We’ve been busy with our clients and the various trials our team is handling, of course, but we’ve also been busy doing our best to support Tad Thomas and his endeavors of becoming this year’s Parliamentarian of the American Association for Justice (AAJ). Tad made the decision to run for office to help ensure the AAJ stays close to its legal fellowship-fueled roots while taking the organization to new heights technologically and strategically. By announcing his candidacy for Parliamentarian, he hoped the position would enable him to give back to the AAJ community he’s come to call home.

We’re proud to deliver the news straight from Boston today: Tad Thomas is the new AAJ Parliamentarian! He won this year’s officer election which took part at the AAJ’s 2017 Annual Convention. We couldn’t be any prouder or happier for Tad.
