Wade Boggs

While a player for the New York Yankees, Wade Boggs was sued by a Continental Airlines flight attendant based on her allegation of verbal assault arising from an argument that she had with Mr. Boggs on a chartered team flight. During the course of the two-day civil trial, we were able to show that the plaintiff escalated the situation, did not report the incident for three weeks, missed no flight assignments, and needed no counseling or other care as a result. Believing there was no legitimate basis for the claim, the jury returned a verdict in favor of Mr. Boggs in less than five minutes.
