Good luck to her.

Maybe she was the same Spanish women who tried to restore the Ecce Homo

LOL nothing surprises me anymore

Another silly grab for cash ploy hah good story though

Bunneh · #5 06-07-2015

LOL when i first read this i thought this was about 'the Sun' newspaper

She cannot possibly think she can win this really...

MM78 · #6 06-07-2015

I wouldn't be surprised if the Courts threw this dumb case out of their courts. I wonder how long before she gets her account Limited and ends up here asking for help to get back to selling the Sun!

BigCJ · #7 06-07-2015

I think Im more surprised that people were actually BUYING this from her...

i believe the article states she got banned or something and eBay wanted to settle out of court and she denied..

eBay banned her because she was not selling a tangible item. She claims to own the sun, but her legal reasoning is ridiculous. Since the UN bans individual countries from claiming to own celestial bodies, but does not say anything about individuals, she claimed the sun. Not that it will stand up in court.

I just thought of something....if she owns the Sun, and if I get skin cancer...can I sue her for the skin cancer which was caused by the sun?

**TGMT²** · #11 06-07-2015

Actually that's a Good Point..

In other reports she wants to charge people and businesses who use solar energy for the use of "her" Sun.

Ms Duran, who lives in the town of Salvaterra do Mino, said she now wants to slap a fee on everyone who uses the sun

So next time I get a sunburn, I think I'll file a pain and suffering case on her.

I would like to sue her for forcing the Sun on me since i have not requested it. This is just like second hand smoke. I think I have that freedom. Her Sun is assaulting me! It makes me sneeze and gives me headaches!

I want to sue her because her sun is causing the paint job on my awesome looking Prius stain away.

you cannot buy and sell stuff like that so they wasted their money...

JamesNorth101 · #17 12-04-2015

Unless it was PSR J2222-0137. If it was I would hang onto that!

Courts are in Spain.....

Maybe they are loopier than the USA!

lol she must be on some substances??

jeffweico · #20 04-10-2016

People buy this kind of stuff because it is cheap and they get a certificate that works as a conversation starter. I seriously doubt that anyone buying these certificates, or other certificates that claim ownership of the moon, or stars, truly believes that they own it.

Many courts hear all kinds of crazy cases, just based on the reasoning that everyone deserves their day in court. I doubt she will win this.
