The company argues Jeffrey Piccolo, the widow of Kanokporn Tangsuan, had agreed to settle any lawsuits against Disney out of court through the arbitration process when he signed up for a one-month trial of Disney+ in 2019 and acknowledged that he had reviewed the fine print.
FILE - A Disney logo forms part of a Disney Plus menu on a computer screen in Walpole, Mass., on Nov. 13, 2019. Does signing up for Disney 's popular streaming service mean you have agreed to never sue the entertainment giant over anything forever?
The company argues Piccolo had agreed to settle any lawsuits against Disney out of court through the arbitration process when he signed up for a one-month trial of Disney+ in 2019 and acknowledged that he had reviewed the fine print. Spokespersons for the Walt Disney Company and Raglan Road, the pub in Disney Springs where Tangsuan dined, didn't immediately respond to emails seeking comment Wednesday.
Piccolo's lawsuit, which was filed in February, claims that he, his wife and his mother ate at the Raglan Road Irish Pub in Disney Springs, an outdoor shopping, dining and entertainment complex at Disney World, on Oct 5, 2023. About 45 minutes after finishing their dinner, Tangsuan had difficulty breathing while out shopping, collapsed and eventually died at the hospital, despite self-administering an EpiPen during the allergic reaction, according to the lawsuit.
