This actually puts the old woman who sued McDonalds over that hot cup of coffee years back to shame.
Is there any way you can sue someone for being so contemptible? eyeroll
Good Fuking Lord! The moral bankruptcy of America has sunk to a new low.
Btw, I just bet that he’s including a charge of hot-coffee-in-the-lap in the lawsuit.
If this lawsuit is ruled in favour of the cleaners, they can counter-sue for wasting their time over a two-year period, and probably win for a large settlement.
And he’s a judge no less, what an asshole.
So, anyone think he’ll succeed in taking the cleaners to the cleaners?
Curiously, the other day my (makeshift) law teacher gave us a lecture about how outraged she was at a recent case in my country, in which a father presented an appeal for legal protection in order to get his dumbass son (Not mentally deficient, just a regular moron) to pass his school year even though he had failed SEVEN different courses. The district attorney (Who just happened to be the mother) approved it, and so the kid passed.
But really, this takes the cake. I wonder what she’ll say about this.
Suing for 10 years worth of weekend car rentals? Dude, wtf? And 63 witnesses?
After finishing reading the article, dude is a massive asshole.
Uh … yeah, this is really freaking stupid and frivolous.
I predict that Pearson will lose the case, and also won’t be re-elected judge.
The difference between this and the McDonalds coffee case is that no one will pity Pearson for his lost pants. No jury would believe that missing pants caused emotional trauma. Moreover, the couple had already offered Pearson money to buy <i>several</i> replacement suits. To explain why he didn’t accept their offer, Pearson would have to argue that his pants had sentimental value worth more than $10,000. No jury will take that seriously.
Finally, there’s no way this couple will be able to pay Pearson. In fact, <i>all</i> of their assets would probably not be much compared to Pearson’s salary. This means Pearson is not out to make tons of money at another’s expense – a despicable but understandable motive – but rather to bankrupt a poor couple out of spite. The jury will view this as downright evil.
Pearson will lose the case, and the area over which he is judge will have grown to despise him. He’ll lose his job as a result of his spitefulness.
Old news. Cool (in that creepy, disturbing sense) though.
Son of a bitch… I hope someone will pour acid into his pants.
I should sue the internet for all the time I’ve wasted here.

This is just idiotic.
Getting sued over something so stupid, for such a stupid amount. It’s crazy.
Tru dat.
That wins the highgrade douchebag award.
I beleive it. My family owns a restraunt and weve gotten some pretty stupid lawsuits. One time a women tried to sue us beacuse the door closed to fast since no one held it open and it hit her. The case was dismissed, I dont think it ever made it to court I was little at the time.
But seriously sometimes I just hate people. I really hope the couple gets to counter sue.
No way. They’ll countersue the pants off of this guy.
:ulty:
Sentimental value? For a pair of pants? Kind of makes you want to know what kinds of pants are we dealing with…
Dropped to $54 mil. How about a counter suit for being a moneygrubbing retard?
