Okay here's the summary. This judge who visited a certain small dry-cleaner business had his pants lost 3 times. Yeah that sucks but the owners offered to pay for his pants but he refused.


He is suing them for 67 Million dollars!

He also wants $500,000 in emotional damages (yeah right).

He also wants $542, 500 in legal fees, even though he is representing himself in court!

He wants $15,000 for 10 years worth of weekend car rentals (supposedly to drive his pants to a different shop).



Quote:

the Chungs offered Pearson $3,000 in compensation.

No dice.

Then they offered him $4,600.

No dice.

Finally, they offered $12,000 for the missing gray trousers with the red and blue stripes.

Pearson said no.

The judge went to the lawbooks. Citing the District of Columbia's consumer protection laws, he claims he is entitled to $1,500 per violation. Per day.


So not only is the Judge totally fucking these guys over, but since he is a "judge", the court is not throwing it out. People try dumbass attempts like this to sue people all the time, but they get thrown out as "frivilous lawsuits", which translates to "Don't waste our time with stupid and/or ridiculous lawsuits".

Yeah it sucks that his pants were lost 3 times. But if the service was so bad why did he keep going back? Why didn't he accept their offer to pay for his pants?

In my opinion this guy is a dick and if I saw him I would take a shit right in his pants pocket.
