Parents Sue Daughter

A Montreal area woman won $2,100,000.00 in 1993.  She shared some with her sisters, but gave nothing to her mother who had kicked her out of the house at the age of 14.

The parents sued and the litigation even included the sisters.  After four years of acrimonious litigation, private investigators, and family feuding, the Quebec Superior Court awarded the parents $1,000.00 per month allowance for three years.  Mr. Justice A. Denis, in his ruling wrote "Winning the jackpot should have been a happy event, but instead it degenerated, in court, into a family feud where all participants came out exhausted and bruised."

Imagine the outcome if she had won ANONYMOUSLY.
