Lol

He can't just sue them...he must drink it and suffer damages. Only sighting the dirt in the drink don't make the company liable to pay damages. The victim must actually suffer damages.


OK, he must die before he sue them. You really know the law. Smh

Lol. Bro, he doesn't have to die. Simple medical complications and evidence of it will do. However, if he dies, and the autopsy reveals that it was the substance in the drink that killed him, then more money for his estate.

Unfortunately, that's the position of the law and it quite straight forward really.

MODs should be careful with the way they believe unconfirmed stories. This might just be an attempt to destroy the reputation and public perception of the brand.

Anybody can open a bottle, drop any substance and make a re-seal.


@Seun, what's the evidence that the said bottle has never been opened?


This is crazy. Just look at the photo and you will discover that that single bottle of Schweppes is the only available bottle amidst other soft drinks.

Why should anybody believe this story in the first place? What an anonymous image slayer!

As regard those talking about "sue", OP will only win his case in a Court of Opinion. Any attempt to confront the Law Court might land him jail! Do you know how much it takes to build a BRAND?

Do you know the cost of destroying one's image?

@OP, I hope you have billions in your account?
if it has not been opened he has the right to sue them, by the way are you working in that company?

DONOGHUE V. STEVENSON (1932)



donoghue v. stevenson
Donoghue v. Stevenson is often referred to as the ‘snail in the bottle’ case

Donoghue v. Stevenson, also known as the ‘snail in the bottle case’, is a significant case in Western law. The House of Lords’ ruling in this case established the civil law tort of negligence and obliged manufacturers to observe a duty of care towards their customers. The events of the case took place in Paisley, Scotland in 1928. While attending a store, Ms May Donoghue was given a bottle of ginger beer, which had purchased for her by a friend. The bottle was later discovered to contain a decomposing snail. Since the bottle was not made of clear glass, Donoghue had consumed most of its contents before she became aware of the snail. She later fell ill and a physician diagnosed her with gastroenteritis. Donoghue subsequently took legal action against Mr David Stevenson, the manufacturer of the ginger beer. She lodged a writ in the Court of Sessions, Scotland’s highest civil court, seeking £500 damages.



Donoghue could not sue Stevenson for breach of contract, because a friend had purchased the drink for her. Instead, her lawyers claimed that Stevenson had breached a duty of care to his consumers and had caused injury through negligence – an area of civil law which at the time was largely untested. Stevenson’s lawyers challenged Donoghue’s action, on the basis that no precedents existed for such a claim. They referred to an earlier action by Donoghue’s lawyer, Mullen v. AG Barr, where a dead mouse was found in a bottle of soft drink; judges in this case dismissed it because of a lack of precedent. Donoghue’s initial action failed, however she was granted leave to appeal to the House of Lords, which at the time still had the judicial authority to hear appellate cases. The leading judgement, delivered by Lord Atkin in 1932, established that Stevenson should be responsible for the well-being of individuals who consume his products, given that they could not be inspected. The case was returned to the original court; Stevenson died before the case was finalised and Donoghue was awarded a reduced amount of damages from his estate.

The outcomes of Donoghue v. Stevenson established several legal principles and precedents:

Negligence. Firstly, the House of Lords ruling affirmed that negligence is a tort. A plaintiff can take civil action against a respondent, if the respondent’s negligence causes the plaintiff injury or loss of property. Previously the plaintiff had to demonstrate some contractual arrangement for negligence to be proven, such as the sale of an item or an agreement to provide a service. Since Donoghue had not purchased the drink, she could prove no contractual arrangement with Stevenson – yet Lord Atkin’s judgement established that Stevenson was still responsible for the integrity of his product.

Duty of care. Secondly, the case established that manufacturers have a duty of care to the end consumers or users of their products. According to Lord Atkin’s ratio decendi, “a manufacturer of products, which he sells… to reach the ultimate consumer in the form in which they left him… owes a duty to the consumer to take reasonable care”. This precedent has evolved and now forms the basis of laws that protect consumers from contaminated or faulty goods. These protections began as common law but many have since been codified in legislation, such as the Trade Practices Act (Commonwealth, 1974).

Neighbour principle. Thirdly, the Donoghue v. Stevenson case produced Lord Atkin’s controversial ‘neighbour principle’, which extended the tort of negligence beyond the tortfeasor and the immediate party. It raised the question of exactly which people might be affected by negligent actions. In Donoghue’s case she had not purchased the ginger beer but had received it as a gift; she was a neighbour rather than a party to the contract. Atkin said of this principle: “You must take reasonable care to avoid acts or omissions which you can reasonably foresee would be likely to injure your neighbour. Who, then, in law, is my neighbour? The answer seems to be persons who are so closely and directly affected by my act that I ought to have them in [mind] when I am [considering these] acts or omissions.”
