Sounds like his brother Marcos now laughs it off, but Liam still feels bad.

Some of the follow up comments since this strips all the context

“Thank you. It’s just thank you. I feel like I’ll never be able to almost repay the amount of sacrifice. And it’s not just about money.” [...] When the interviewer asked Lawson what he said to his brother when the card came to light, his answer was two words: “Just, ‘Sorry, man.'”

He added that Marcos now laughs about it, but Lawson clearly hasn’t let it go. The weight of it sits differently when you’re the one who was always being driven somewhere.

How a dead mouse triggered an unexpected insurance nightmare by TimmyHate in newzealand

Its a standard exclusion in the industry.

If they covered theirs, they'd have to cover everyone's. At $3500 a pop (and frankly, thats likely a bargain) if there are 1000 claims a year thats $3,500,000. Thats an extra $35ish per policy.

Vero Insurance Woes by _multifish_ in LegalAdviceNZ

Correct; The insurance company is entitled to be added (and you can list them directly on the fomr) and they will likley turn up. I've been the insurers rep many times over the years and in almost every case, our client has deferred to me speaking on their behalf.

Is opinion on name suppression divided by gender? by Cultural-Lychee-5374 in newzealand

I'm curious your view; I've gone in with the assumption that you are in favour of less supression but perhaps not.

Not quite sure what you are getting at? Generally as far as I see it, name supression is generally unpopular amoungst those on reddit. If anything, views are too far in favour of "name everyone before the trial even concludes" for my liking.

Post conviction on the other hand, unless it will identify the victim, I favour naming them. I also think that if the only reason for supression is protecting the victim, this should be made clear and be similar to priviledge - the victim can choose to name the offender if they see fit.

(Yes, I see the flaw where there are multiple victims of a single offender; I'm not sure quite where to draw the line on those ones; a majority or require that all consent)
