It's good to know that the justice system still recognizes frivolous lawsuits like this one:
Roy L. Pearson, an administrative law judge, originally sought $67 million from the Chung family, owners of Custom Cleaners. He claimed they lost a favorite pair of his suit trousers and later tried to give him a pair that were not his.
Custom Cleaners did not violate the city's Consumer Protection Act by failing to live up to Pearson's expectations of the "Satisfaction Guaranteed" sign displayed in the store window, Superior Court Judge Judith Bartnoff ruled.
[Pearson] calculated the amount of damages by estimating years of violations, then adding almost $2 million in common-law claims for fraud.
