A man leaves Custom Cleaners, in Washington on Wednesday, May 2, 2007. A customer who believes he was mistreated by a dry cleaner has dropped the pants from his suit. Roy L. Pearson, who filed a $67 million lawsuit against the dry cleaning business that lost his pants, has lowered his demand. Now, he's asking for only $54 million, according to a May 30 court filing in D.C. Superior Court. (AP Photo/Jacquelyn Martin)


This might be a repost, i did search and did not see it.
 
This kind of stuff makes me physically ill. Especially since the man suing is a n actual JUDGE!!! He should know better than to waste the courts time with outrageous law suits like this. The cleaners offered $10,000 to settle, which more than makes up for the lost pants. I hope the court rules against the judge and forces him to pay the cleaners for mental distress and court costs. That would be justice.
 
I once charged that same judge $88 million for consultation services. All I said was "hey judge, sue me!"
 
Cleaners Win!, plus the stupid judge has to pay their court costs and may have to pay their attorney fees also.

Frankly I think this judge (the plaintif) has proven himself to not be fit to be a judge and should be removed and disbarred.
 
what bothers me most is the fact that the guy is a judge. for him to be in the position to decide cases is insane.
 
I love this:

The ABC News Law & Justice Unit has calculated that for the original $67 million Pearson sought, he could buy 84,115 new pairs of pants at the $800 value he placed on the missing trousers in court documents. If you stacked those pants up, they would be taller than eight Mount Everests. If you laid them side by side, they would stretch for 48 miles.

A judge that clearly has no sense of justice or morality... wonderful.

I'm glad to hear about the outcome, but it's just insane that a case like this could even make it into the courtroom.

Why do you hear about crazy cases like this only from the United States?

I really despise those kind of people. The guy should have asked for $1000 max.

"...he could buy 84,115 new pairs of pants at the $800 value he placed on the missing trousers in court documents..."

What is he thinking?
