Man suing LA Angels of Anaheim after being denied Mother's Day tote bag

Is there ANY way we as citizens can stop all these frivilous lawsuits that cost taxpayer money?

http://news.yahoo.com/s/kgtv/20060516/lo_kgtv/9225405

A San Diego lawyer is suing the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim baseball team for what he calls sex and age discrimination.

Alfred Rava filed a suit on behalf of a man who was denied a tote bag during a Mother's Day promotion last year.

Rava has also sued the San Diego Padres and the Oakland Athletics over Mother's Day promotions.

He's also sued bars for giving women discounts on "ladies' night."

Some attorneys say Rava is abusing California's "unruh civil rights act" to get hefty out-of-court settlements.
