A delivery driver has won $50 million in a lawsuit after being seriously burned when a Starbucks tea drink spilled in his lap at a California drive-through, court records show.
A Los Angeles County jury found on 14 March 2025 for Michael Garcia, who underwent skin grafts and other procedures after a venti-sized tea drink spilled an instant after he collected it on 8 February 2020. He has suffered permanent and life-changing disfigurement, according to his attorneys.

Set loose the Jewish ambulance chasers. I can see the new TV advertisements now. Was your ballsack scorched by a hot liquid that you dropped on yourself because you are a clumsy idiot and didn’t bother to look at your coffee cup lid. Call the Finkelstein and Stein law firm now. Remember you are always the victim. Not an idiot!
