In April we wrote THIS POST about a lawyer who some thought was a real sew-and-sew but definitely not a slacker for filing a $54 million lawsuit against the dry cleaner who lost the lawyer’s (who is actually a federal adminstrative law judge) pants.
Readers got a rise out of the story and were panting to learn the outcome.
The verdict has now been handed down and you should go to THIS LINK to read the definitive word and thoughts about it.
Clearly, the judge found the pants suit unseamly.
P.S. The defendent did not pleat bargain.
