There is no excuse for the expat to punch the plaintiff and then
claim that he only realised she was a lady AFTER the assault.
His subsequent defence: that he was protecting his wife etc was
mitigating crap.
On the other hand, there is nothing to say the plaintiff did not
ABUSE him after he kicked the golden retriever. So she may have
been partially responsible for her own injuries.
And then after the expat agreed to extend her further compensation,
she gave a wild figure of 50k, which was rightfully rubbished by
his lawyer (she claims the money was to 'teach him a lesson' and
that it would have been donated to charity, but can anyone truly
believe that?).
Really, if she's disappointed, she has only herself to blame,
seeing that she had the opportunity to be properly compensated but
spit in his face instead.
