Disney says husband can’t sue over wife’s wrongful death – because he signed up to Disney+ trial

Why bring up Disney+ at all?

Just issue a statement saying that "This was a tragedy however Disney does not own or manage this restaurant and is not liable in the death in any way"

and the Disney+ clause seems odd anyway. Because you use our streaming service you can't have a jury trial no matter what Disney does

I don't know Florida law, but it could be that the two arbitration clauses were plead in the Answer filed by the Disney attorneys because if it's not included as an affirmative defense it is waived. It's possible it was just included because they did not want to waive the argument even if they are highly unlikely to seriously argue that the arbitration clause in the Disney+ contract is applicable in this case. Lawyers do this all the time just to reserve every right and defense possible in case something happens latter or they later discover evidence that might make it a viable defense.

Some reporter probably found the Answer in the record and wrote this article without adding, or possibly not knowing, the context of how lawyers work and why they do things.
