If a fraternity serves a guest and the guest drives to a bar and wrecks the fraterntiy gets sued. If the guest is at a bar and the bar serves the same person and he leaves the bar and drives to a fraternity house and wrecks, the fraternity still gets sued. What is the deal? Shouldn't the bar be responsible for the person they served and the fraternity responsible for the person they served?
Not an attorney here, but a strategy often employed is to throw mud at everyone in these cases and see where it sticks. The bar AND the fraternity AND the bartender and anyone else you could conceive of would probably be named in a suit.
