What we can learn from the Disney World legal case

From Nights, 10:17 pm on 19 August 2024

A man wanted to take Disney World to court for wrongful death, after his wife died of an allergic reaction after a trip to the theme park.

But Disney is trying to dismiss the claim, saying the husband signed away his rights to bring a lawsuit against Disney when, years prior, he agreed to the terms and conditions as part of setting up a Disney+ account.

Senior lecturer in the Faculty of Law at the University of Auckland Joshua Yuvaraj joins Emile to discuss the case.
