Wendy's Finger Food Update

Woman who claimed to find finger at Wendy's has litigious history

LAS VEGAS — The woman who claims she bit into a human finger while eating chili at a Wendy's restaurant has a history of filing lawsuits — including a claim against another fast-food restaurant in Nevada. Anna Ayala, who hired a San Jose, Calif., attorney to represent her in the Wendy's case, has been involved in at least half a dozen legal battles in the San Francisco Bay area, according to more than a decade of court records. They include the suit she brought against an ex-boss in 1998, seeking $500,000 for sexual harassment, and the 2000 case she filed against an auto dealership alleging the wheel fell off her car. That suit was dismissed after Ayala fired her lawyer, who said she had threatened him.
The radio had a rumor that there's a dead aunt mixed up in this too...possibly missing a...um, digit.

#5  I take it she didn't find the food finger-lickin good. So she gave them the finger.

But it seems now she bit off more then she can chew.

#3  Many years ago, I was actually standing at the counter in a fast-food place when an employee accidentally cut his finger off with a meat-slicing machine. The guy screeched, blood spurted everywhere, and the manager ran back to see what was happening. The manager fainted dead away but a 16 year-old bus-boy scooped up the finger and wrapped it in a towel. I suggested that he add some ice from the Coke machine and he promptly did. Another customer revived the manager, while the busboy and the wounded cook sped off to the hospital, iced finger in hand. I learned later that it was successfully re-attached.
