A case has been brought to the Independent Tribunal for Judge Mathews to determine if plaintives have a case against MYfestival.com event planners for the deliberate endangerment of the public due to inadequate preparation and storage of food used at the Vox8 festival in Coventry August 2008. At the festival 5 people had immediate wheezing, breathing and respiratory difficulties after having lunch at the site market place on the 11th August at midday. These victims all had severe problems within 5 minutes of ingestion of their food stuff and had to be hospitalised in 3 cases. A further 250 people were struck ill within 1 to 5 hrs of eating at several venues on the site. A further 30 people were ill within 1 to 2 days after the festival. In addition a further 25 claim illness within 3 months of the festival. Final verdict to be determined is:- Are the plaintives able to claim compensation from any of the companies involved? and identify who they are able to claim from and why?
