U-Haul said that it has been sued more than 10,000 times over the last 20 years... Almost 1.5 times per day on average.    Wonder how many of those I/you/we would consider legit given the facts of the case. |

Redding fined U-Haul $10,000 and warned that if the case went to trial, he would allow Marx's lawyers to put in evidence an internal document known as the "dumb *feces*" memo.
The memo, described by the judge as "that tasteless piece of literature," was written by U-Haul founder L.S. Shoen, company chairman from 1945 to 1986.
In the 1976 memo, Shoen coached U-Haul managers to be as unhelpful as possible to a plaintiff's "hired gun" lawyer if called to testify. Don't lie, he said, but embrace the fleeting nature of memory.
