Victim's Children File Suit Against San Antonio Bar
Lisa Harter, 26, died in January when her intoxicated companion and driver, Marcos Serda, flipped the car. In the wake of their mother’s tragic death, Ms. Harter’s children have filed a wrongful death suit against Mr. Serda and the San Antonio bar, the Flying Saucer, which served Mr. Serda drinks. According to the family’s legal representative, on the night of the accident the Flying Saucer was encouraging participation in the bar’s “U.F.O. Club,” a promotion that asked customers to drink every beer served in the bar.
Ms. Harter’s bereaved family has taken a sensible approach: sue the bar. (Of note, in the law bars and taverns are often known as “dram shops.”) If you or a loved one has been in an accident with a drunk driver, you may have a cause of action against the dram shop where they were drinking. The bar may share in responsible for the damages you incurred and injuries you sustained.
