🔥🔥🔥 willful + wanton = “you knew it was dangerous… and you fucking did it anyway.” 💀⚰️

ok so like

shut up w the

“omg it was an accident” 🙃🙃🙃
“we didn’t mean to” 🤡🤡🤡
“it was a misunderstanding”

👏🙄👏

cool.

but it wasn’t.

they want the world
to believe this was a “casualty.”
like the harm
just wandered in on its own.
☝️🙄🤡


like
💥️ nobody drove.
💥️ nobody steered.
💥️ nobody hit the fucking gas.

🧍‍♂️💨

nah hun.

✨🧠✨

it’s you knew it was dangerous 😨💥
and you did it anyway
with that special kind of
🔥 reckless goddamn confidence 🔥
that only exists
when someone thinks
consequences are
for other fucking people.

🤡💅


(punitive energy, legally defined) 💥️💥️💥️

purposeful conduct
that you
had to realize
was fucking dangerous,
done heedlessly + recklessly, 🏆
without regard to consequences
or other people’s goddamn rights/safety.

🔥🔥🔥🔥😐


translation:
nah babe—
not a mistake. a fucking choice.

🧾💅⚖️

baby!!!

🔥 exemplary (punitive) damages 🔥

“hi.
i’m
not here to heal.
i’m here to
correct
this goddamn behavior.”

🐕⚡️

sweetie.

not negligence:
“lol i messed up.”

😶💫

nope.

babe.
come close—

willful + wanton:
🔥 i saw the risk.
🔥 i goddamn proceeded.
🔥 i slept fucking fine.”

🙃🙃🙃

shit.

🫵🤥✨

when the injury is
attended by
🔥 fraud,
🔥 malice,
🔥 or willful + wanton conduct,
the jury
may tack on
🔥 exemplary damages 🔥
in addition
to actual damages.
and the “default cap”
is basically:
you don’t get to do a bonus round
bigger than the harm you caused.

(generally = up to 1x actual damages)

ok,
cap behavior:

“no bonus round…
unless you continue
acting goddamn stupid

🥳🎉📉

ok but like…

you’re also saying…

🔥🦅⚾️🎸🇺🇸🤠🔥

if they keep acting up
during the issue????

damn.

the bench can
increase exemplary damages
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🦅⚾️🎸💥🧠
up to 3x actual
if they:

🔥 continue/repeat
🔥 the same
🔥 goddamn
🔥 willful + wanton behavior
🔥 during the pendency,
or
do new
reckless nonsense 🫠🌈✨
that aggravates
💥 the harm 💥
while litigation is pending—
🥳🎉📉
translation:

double the fuck down → pay tf up.

so like…

under c.r.s. § 13-21-102,
“willful and wanton” means
purposeful,
reckless conduct
done with disregard
for consequences
and
others’ rights/safety;
that can support
exemplary (punitive) damages,
generally capped at 1x actual damages
but potentially increased up to 3x
if the defendant repeats the conduct
or aggravates harm during the case.

💖💫

damn so…

if deterrence
is accomplished,
conduct stops, etc.
🐄⚡️🧾

i goddamn hope so. 🔥🔥🔥🔥

because look…
this shit is—

🔥 wild ass behavior.
🔥 dangerous ass behavior.
🔥 as per pick-me usual.

🐀✨🤫🔥

lol
