A few older people are claiming this is age discrimination. While We have not turned anyone away, we have explained that the event is targeted to young professionals and offer other networking activities for all.

Hello, I receive advertisement material which uses "masked" profanity language (F*it,F*word). I find it offensive, especially if children can take it from the mailbox. Can I sue the sender?
answered on Jun 28, 2024
I can think of no legal cause of action that would allow for compensation on these facts. Typically, being "offended" does not constitute compensable legal damages.

Usually, there is no sort of legal "recognition" for a victim of an appellate lawsuit. If you are the victim of the crime that was the subject of that case, by law the publishers will not publish your name because you were a minor when the criminal conduct occurred.

How is the delivery fee calculated? Does it clearly reflect the cost of using a third-party delivery service like DoorDash? If the fee appears to be inflated or disproportionate to the actual cost of delivery, it could be argued that the pizza company is unjustly profiting.
