CACashRefund Posted February 6, 2005 Share Posted February 6, 2005 DURANGO, Colo. (Reuters) - A Colorado judge ordered two teen-age girls to pay about $900 for the distress a neighbor said they caused by giving her home-made cookies adorned with paper hearts. The pair were ordered to pay $871.70 plus $39 in court costs after neighbor Wanita Renea Young, 49, filed a lawsuit complaining that the unsolicited cookies, left at her house after the girls knocked on her door, had triggered an anxiety attack that sent her to the hospital the next day. Taylor Ostergaard, then 17, and Lindsey Jo Zellitte, 18, paid the judgment on Thursday after a small claims court ruling by La Plata County Court Judge Doug Walker, a court clerk said on Friday. The girls baked cookies as a surprise for several of their rural Colorado neighbors on July 31 and dropped off small batches on their porches, accompanied by red or pink paper hearts and the message: "Have a great night." The Denver Post newspaper reported on Friday that the girls had decided to stay home and bake the cookies rather than go to a dance where there might be cursing and drinking. It reported that six neighbors wrote letters entered as evidence in the case thanking the girls for the cookies. But Young said she was frightened because the two had knocked on her door at about 10:30 p.m. and run off after leaving the cookies. She went to a hospital emergency room the next day, fearing that she had suffered a heart attack, court records said. The judge awarded Young her medical costs, but did not award punitive damages. He said he did not think the girls had acted maliciously but that 10:30 was fairly late at night for them to be out. Source Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest KING BLING Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/41714...00484&qs=1;bp=t The father of a Durango, Colo., teenager, who was sued for leaving cookies on a neighbor's porch, now has a restraining order against the husband of the woman who filed suit.... Denver radio station KOA raised more than $1,900 from listeners Friday to pay the court fine levied against the two girls. The remainder of the money will go to a charity dedicated to victims of the Columbine High School shootings... Young said her phone hasn't stopped ringing and her life has been threatened.
