Judge who sued over pants loses job

[The Helper]

WASHINGTON - A judge who lost a $54 million lawsuit against his dry cleaner over a pair of missing pants has lost his job, District of Columbia officials said.

Roy Pearson's term as an administrative law judge expired May 2 and the D.C. Commission on Selection and Tenure of Administrative Law Judges has voted not to reappoint him, Lisa Coleman, the city's general counsel, wrote Nov. 8 in response to a Freedom of Information Act request from The Associated Press.

First his pants, now his job...

I bet he's going to go sue the D.C. Commission for some rediculous amount of money for some stupid excuse.

Wow...just wow. And he's a judge. That makes you wonder what rulings this guy was responsible for in the past. Got to love the system. Amen that he is fired now, what a relief. That man has some serious issues, hope he can work them out when he goes to hell.

Should've happened sooner.

this system is retarded, people sue other people for stupidest shit, a theif got stuck in a person garage when trying to steal something from his targets when they went for vacation. He sued them for something and won. Like over 3 million i think. Its so stupid.

 

[chovynz]

What kind of drycleaner has 54 million dollars anyway?

 

[w/e]

Good. When I first heard of this case, I was hoping he'd lose.
