If the bar has a legal responsibility, then she can't be 100% at fault. Those are two contradictory statements is what I'm telling you.

Also, anyone can file a lawsuit over anything. Even though it's unlikely a jury or judge will find the bar responsible for all of the damages, there is nothing wrong with aiming high and landing somewhere in the middle.

Well, the law talks about partial responsibility, not complete liability. So she still gets held accountable for the criminal side of things and part of the civil side.

>So this woman gets no responsibility of hours prior knowing she was gonna to be drinking heavy?

No one is saying the woman gets away free. I'm only saying that some states in the U.S. would also hold the bar accountable for its role in the accidents and they should be. The same if a business sold products that poisoned its customers.
