I don't think that a UA FA would automatically refill someone's wine glass 20+ times one one flight, but I could see it happening if the guy kept asking for it.
If they gave him 24 glasses (and thats a sizeable IF) over 9 hours it still would depend on if he looked or acted drunk.

The other big part is its not the wife suing for her damages due to the idiot husband but they want UA to pay his fees and lost wages due to his stupidity. So its not a simple third party getting injured by someone who they claim was over served.
