Crybaby. Give him his out of pocket costs, but that's it. Let him go back to chasing ambulances, or maybe he can find a crack in the sidewalk to trip over.

The guy is a lawyer, and this seems like the first time he has done business with an airline. He seems like one of those that LOOKS for people or situations to be blown out of sorts just to justify to himself he's a big and important "lawyer". Whoop de friggin do------bring the case in front of Judy........She'll throw him, his mother, and his bags out the door for stupid B.S.

The airline employees are rude to everyone, but what do you really expect from a welfare job which is overrun with project mothers and wannabe rapper "thugs" .

Go for it! Airlines make people suffer fo no reason. I think we all understand the security and safety issues but being treated this way is beyond belief. Airlines need accountability.

It's people like this that make the prices of everything go up so much.$275,000 for compensatory damages? Give me a break!! No wonder lawyers aren't covered by a lot of insurance companies, it's because they complain & sue all the time!!

Sounds like another story. I fly about 2 time a month mostly on Delta and have never had a bad experience. I have had flights delayed and cancelled but delta has been the easiest and best airline to get you to your destination. It seems to me that Mr. Roth is not telling the whole truth. I hope the judge throws out the case.

Another sue-happy lawyer....$1M? COME ON!! Hasn't this happened to just about everyone? And if not you directly, someone you know? How pathetic. And we wonder why the world is the way it is.... what an embarassment to the lawyer community and to people in general.

Lol.... You should've done your homework on this one before you flew dude - Delta airlines sucks.
Hope you get your $1 million from them though. A good, swift, kick in the *ss is what that company needs!

I was stuck in an airport with 15 minors for 38 hours. Our flight was cancelled and there weren’t any flights to be put on. The 15 kids did not complain once. Yes, I our trip was shortened, but come on, it happens and you move on with life. I hope he is tarnishing his own reputation. Truth be told, he will fly Delta again if the flight is least expensive.
