Disney Reverses Stance on Jeffrey Piccolo's Wrongful Death Lawsuit Over Disney+ Trial
Aug 20, 2024, 09:02 AM
Walt Disney Co. initially sought to dismiss a wrongful death lawsuit filed by Jeffrey Piccolo, whose wife died from an allergic reaction at a Disney Springs restaurant, by arguing that Piccolo waived his right to sue when he signed up for a Disney+ trial in 2019. The company claimed the terms of service included an arbitration clause that prevented lawsuits. However, following significant public backlash, Disney has reversed its stance and agreed to allow the case to proceed in court. Disney Experiences Chairman Josh D’Amaro emphasized the decision as a commitment to addressing the family's concerns through the judicial process in Florida.
