He got hit outside right in front of the bar. I found out it is private property owned by the bar owner. My friend that got hit was on life support for 4 days and ended up losing his memory and was hospitalized for a month. The guy that hit him never got in trouble because it was my friend who was the one who started it. My friend is a totally different person now. He acts differently and if he gets hit in the head at all by anything he will probably die because the blow to his head was so severe that it is going to take a long time to heal. The bar owner ended up firing the bartender who was on duty. There was any type of fight inside but everyone that was in the bar knew that these two hated each other. The bartender knew that as well. I heard around that my friend could sue the bar owner for ???? Is this true. And if so what would he be sueing for?

he does have an expectation not to get attacked when he goes to a bar, but from what you've said here, I can't tell exactly what happened, call a local lawyer, because he might have a tort suit.
You say he "started it" but did he initiate the physical contact? Thats what you'd need to know.

In this sue-happy culture we live in I suppose he could, but he would be a fool if he did as the bar was not at fault. Of course, there is probably a greedy lawyer or two that would try to make the bar liable.

This same guy probably would have started a fight with the bar owner if he refused to serve him or had asked to leave.

I don't know how the law works in your country, but don't you think your friend is luckier than he deserves to be?
He starts a fight, gets his butt kicked and is in IC for 4 days, but survives.
He owes an apology to the bar for starting a fight on the premises!

i think of this question might have been phrased somewhat greater desirable. i do no longer think of too many adult males experience they have a "top" to triumph over their better halves. some no-products do it, yet i do no longer think of even they have a tendency to contemplate it a "top." they only experience like doing it and that they do. yet my answer? bypass away the bum. improve some guts and bypass away him. and that i lose interest of listening to approximately fears that he will music her down and kill her etc. the nice and comfortable button is, it often takes 2 to make this way of concern an ongoing concern. If a female won't bypass away an abusive husband, then there is not any longer a hell of lots possible do for her. i've got time-commemorated women that stayed with adult males that beat on them, and that exhibits, for my section, weak spot or cowardice on their section. I asked one that labored for me (section time, and he or she wasn't an quite stressful worker), that confirmed up with bruises and stuff, why she did no longer, and he or she as much as reported (that they had no teenagers) that he made good money and paid the expenses, and he or she did no longer % to be compelled to fend for herself. user-friendly as that. and that i think of she confirmed some heavily shitty judgement marrying him in the 1st place. maximum jerks are jerks from the get-bypass. I even provided to grant her some money to assist her get by skill of till she have been given on her ft, and to grant her an entire time job (even, as I reported previously, she wasn't all that great of an worker). No bypass. At that element I figured she might desire to easily stew in her very own juice. entire element looked as though it might hardship me greater desirable than it did her, besides. yet I additionally don't think that some black eyes are a justification for premeditated homicide, as some feminists seem to have self belief they're, justifying or perhaps applauding women that set hearth to abusive husbands on the same time as they're slumbering and such. i don't comprehend if that's what you mean by skill of "giving as good as she gets," yet this is the way it interprets to three. As for the law enforcement officials and how they dealt with it, on occasion they only fall ill of being called to the same abode persistently, and doubtless experience the same form of frustration I did. yet no person can help all those that has no activity in helping themselves.

Your friend started a fight and now he wants to sue for damages. Tell your friend to take responsiblity for his own actions.

Maybe, but a better question is, why? Is your friend not responsible for his own behavior?
Your friend would just be adding to the long list of frivolous lawsuits.

I have to agree with the feelings above. If he was old enough to drink, he was old enough to be responsible for his own actions.
He just picked the wrong dude to beat on and got what he was due.

Your friend was an idiot. I'm sorry for your friend, but he was the idiot that started the fight. As such, he should stand up and be a man.
