Should this man have been allowed to sue this casino for giving him an alcoholic drink? See story.

TRENTON, N.J. - A recovering alcoholic who was mistakenly served liquor while gambling at an Atlantic City casino has rolled snake-eyes in his bid to sue. The New Jersey Supreme Court rejected the request made by Lawrence Lemming, 65, of Long Branch. He was playing a slot machine at Harrah's Atlantic City resort when he asked the waitress for a diet cola but instead was given a rum and cola. Lemming, who said he had not consumed alcohol for 32 years, quickly realized what had happened and spit out the drink. He then passed out, but was not injured. He then filed his lawsuit in state Superior Court, but it was dismissed because state law says servers are only liable if they provide alcohol to minors or those who are noticeably drunk...
