Coyote vs. Acme

What it’s about

Wile E. Coyote has spent years chasing the Roadrunner, only to be thwarted again and again by Acme products that backfire. After one failure too many, he decides to sue the Acme Corporation. He hires Kevin Avery, an Albuquerque lawyer who usually handles small cases and prefers quick settlements. But the coyote refuses to settle for another payout. Together they set out to prove that his injuries and destruction were caused by defective Acme merchandise. Their opponent is Buddy Crane, a powerful corporate attorney representing the company.
