How an American Woman Sued a Toilet Paper Manufacturer for $1 Million

She sued the toilet paper manufacturer because she was not given the right to use the entire product she purchased.
A woman demanded a million dollars from a toilet paper manufacturer.
At the trial, the defendant's lawyers tried to object, saying that one shouldn't forget to take a new roll.
