In all honesty, a suit against a company that served coffee at 190 degrees Farenheit resulting in second and third degree burns looks like a better case than hurt feelings inflicted by accident.
It would depend whether Walgreens has had the same complaint before...which of course they aren't going to tell. But McDonald's had 750 prior complaints that were reported with a large percentage of them being workman's comp claims of employees being burnt. The admittedly kept their coffee 40 degrees higher than any other restaurant.
If Walgreens makes a habit of putting derogatory remarks (and yeah CrAzy is very derogatory to someone suffering from depression) and she can prove it...she will win.
Not sure there is a HIPPA angle, she evidently gave persmission for the friend to pick up the perscription. Well I am assuming that Walgreens had permission on file for the pick-up if not...ooooppppss.
