Explain what about the suit was frivolous. Let me remind you of McFact number 5 from my earlier post. Actually, I'm probably minding you of it, as I doubt you bothered to read any of the facts of the case in the earlier post. Nevertheless:

"McFact No. 5: A McDonald's quality assurance manager testified in the case that the Corporation was aware of the risk of serving dangerously hot coffee and had no plans to either turn down the heat or to post warning about the possibility of severe burns, even though most customers wouldn't think it was possible."

I also suggest you google images of the women's burns. Or hell, just watch the documentary. It's all in there. There was nothing frivolous about that lawsuit. And if McDonald's had just been willing to pay for her hospital bill in the first place, they'd never have been sued. They brought it on themselves by negligence and then greed.
