Reportedly, Dunkin’ Donuts served out a very pricey and hot cup of coffee, and the Georgia store, who served the cup, recently paid $3 million to resolve a lawsuit over some spilled coffee.
An elderly woman filed the lawsuit, saying that while sitting in her car in the drive-thru at a Dunkin’ Donuts, her coffee spilled, burning her severely.
The woman stated that the coffee cup’s lid was left open, resulting in a spill that she claims burned her body so severely that she had to have numerous skin treatments and had to learn how to walk again.
The woman will get $3 million from the Dunkin’ Donuts franchisee as part of a settlement, according to her attorneys.
