The guy has got to be friggin kidding me. Roy Pearson former judge and disgruntled pants dude just won’t let it go. Nope he has put in an appeal against the $US54 million lost pants law suit of last year.Remember that little fiasco, making a Korean cry. Humiliation obviously isn’t in his vocabulary as he takes the case back to court. For the love of a straight leg cut, leave this poor South Korean immigrant couple alone. Isn’t he happy enough that he’s responsible for every dry cleaner in the country ripping up their “satisfaction guaranteed” signs. Jin and Soo Chung were happily cleaning, drying and starching when Roy Pearson walked into their shop in 2005 with a pair of blue pants. Later when Roy returned, he claimed that the gray pants he was given weren’t his and demanded Soo Chung pay him $US1000, the price of the entire friggin suit. When she refused, Roy got kinda nasty and demanded that they pay him $US1500 for each day that the “satisfaction guaranteed” sign was up in their window (claiming that it was misleading and dishonest).I Would have loved to have been a fly on that wall, because from all accounts the Chung’s hardly speak a word of English. By the time the case reached court in 2007 the stunned Korean couple were looking at a $54 million lawsuit and wondering why the hell they came to America. The judge eventually ruled in the Chung’s favor and Roy was left licking his wounds in his polyester pants and facing the wrath of the entire world.The aftermath of this incredibly stupid lawsuit was that the Chung’s were forced to sell their Washington DC dry cleaning store and Roy Pearson was ceremoniously dumped as a judge. Another nice lose, lose outcome don’t ya think! We should know by January if we will be having a repeat performance. I wonder if there is going to be a movie?
