Everything you ever wanted to know about the $54 million dollar lawsuit over a pair of lost gray slacks can be found here.

At the end of the case I think the nutball plaintiff will have to pay the Korean dry cleaners’ legal bills and he will be censured by the D.C. bar association for bringing the profession into public disrepute.

If you read between the lines, the guy is a whack job unlikely to actually be able to afford the legal bills and then, I don’t know what happens.

These cases come along and they are always some whack job representing themselves, but this happens to be a whack job with a law license.  Yes, some lawyers are whack jobs, just like waitresses and cops and teachers and preachers.  I see the guy’s too clever by half legal theory, but it’s sloppy law and sloppy thinking and it’s gone on way too long and I blame the dry cleaner lawyers for some of that.  They should have been able to knock him out TKO in round two and not be battling in the ring in the final round of trial.  Further, if I’m the judge, I know this whack job is going to appeal when he doesn’t get what he wants, so I cut it short and let it go up if that’s what he wants to do.  We also have laws that make it OK to require some frequent, vexatious or next to insane litigants to have their pleadings reviewed before allowing them to be filed and the process begin again over new lunacy.  This is one of those guys.  If he hasn’t already filed other frivolous suits, he soon will and I think he thinks the publicity is good for his career.  Another reason to have him sanctioned.

Not that this isn’t enough slumming through the bottom of the sludge pit of meaningless news, other prisoners at LA Co. Jail are filing suits because they weren’t released when they complained of illness.  You know you wanted the latest in your Paris news.

All Paris All the Time.
