What kinda lawyer would have the self respect to sue some girls for trying to be nice? This woman and her lawyer have absolutely no shame in my opinion.
I don't know if a lawyer ever got involved (at least not in the courtroom). It sounds like a small claims case.
But no good deed goes unpunished...
There are some old people who live down the block I work (my office is in a residential area) who will sit by their windows and glare at you should you have the gall to park in the front of their houses. It's limited parking too so they'll call the cops over the second you're parked one minute past two hours. Meanwhile, they don't drive cars themselves and they barely leave the house. They just want to be grumpy. (OOPS - Just reread the story and it looks like she's not old - 49. That's much more pathetic. She's already a basketcase.)
Anyway, if you suffer $900 worth of emotional trauma because someone came to your door a little late then that's the first sign you can't live alone. It's time to look into those retirement homes (EDIT: Yes, even at 49). Cruel? Perhaps, but if someone leaving you cookies sets you off (even if it is late) then you're too far gone to be able to keep the house from exploding.
But it's a free country and if you don't want people skulking around your house at certain hours, fine. But that's not something you should collect $900 over. Solving that would have needed nothing more than a phone call and explanation.
The girls should make her a second batch of cookies but with spit in the dough. Or better yet, be extra nice to the rest of the neighbors who appreciated the gesture and wait for the day the old bag asks why she's being ignored. But she'll probably sue them for emotional neglect and get awarded more unearned money.
Stupid legal system.
