A judge said the woman violated several court orders, made inflammatory statements and refused a volunteer lawyer during the four-year case.
A woman who legally represented herself after declining a $500,000 settlement from a cruise company after the death of her daughter aboard a ship has been sanctioned by a judge.
Her daughter attended the infirmary twice, at 10.50 p.m. on August 27 and at about 2.30 a.m. on August 28, Martins said. But she died later on the morning of the 28th after her condition worsened. In her complaint, Martins argued her daughter could have been medically disembarked at Haiti. In his sanction order, U.S. Magistrate Jonathan Goodman noted Martins had also violated several court orders during the lengthy legal ordeal, refused a volunteer attorney and made inflammatory statements about Royal Caribbean, including calling the company a"killer."
"It is no surprise that the consequences are, to be diplomatic, not good for plaintiff Marla Martins," he added.
