Disney's withdrawal of its request to settle the wrongful-death lawsuit out of court allows the case regarding the death of Kanokporn Tangsuan to proceed to jury trial. The lawsuit claims she died from an allergic reaction to food served at Disney World, and her husband, Jeffrey Piccolo, argues for damages exceeding $50,000, disputing Disney's stance that they bear no responsibility as the restaurant involved is independently operated.
Disney faced backlash after asserting that Dr. Tangsuan's husband agreed to arbitration by signing up for Disney+, implying he could not sue. However, after acknowledging that arbitration would prolong the legal proceedings, the company chose to withdraw the request, allowing the wrongful-death case to be heard in court instead.
