KDDanni, I don't think Westlaw has copies of trial court documents which is where these types of cases usually end. You would be able to find them if they went up the appeals route.
It's sad, but there are a lot of lawyers who don't have any ethics and will run with such a case. It's really sad and why we have a bad rep.
In my opinion, in this case, there would be no comment on whether this guy was trespassing...it was a party with a kiddie pool. From my experience in undergrad, us testosterone frat guys would go wild if someone was at OUR party who wasn't supposed to be. We got rid of him in an instant. Usually parties are free for alls unless the risk management tactics are put in place (ie: security guard, id checker, etc). If anything, there would be contributory negligence on the part of the injured party goer (and depending on state law) the jury decides which amount he would be liable and base the judgement within those perameters.
