The Great "Pantsuit" Continues...

Perhaps some of you are familiar with this legal case in the DC court system. To enlighten you, in 2002, a local dry cleaner lost a pair of pants owned by a judge, Roy Pearson, and paid him $150 for the lost clothing. In 2005, the same judge dropped off a pair of suit pants for alterations. They were not ready when he expected them, so he filed suit in DC court demanding damages of $65 million! He claims that the cleaner is guilty of 12 violations of Consumer Protection Laws a day ($1,500 per violation) x 3 locations of the cleaning business from 2002 on + replacement of his clothing + 1,400 hours of his own legal time + the cost to rent a car to travel to another cleaner + pain and suffering. One of Pearson's cronies in the DC courts allowed this case to go to trial, even though there were allegations of bad faith legal proceedings and poor legal judgement on the judge's part. At the trial, this miserable douche cried talking about how the cleaners abused him. What a pussy. The judge at trial correctly ruled in favor of the defendent, but the cleaning business had to pay $100,000 in legal fees. Undaunted, Pearson has appealed the ruling.

As of April 30, 2007, Pearson was up for renewal of his judicial appointment. In reality, he grossly abused the legal system he is being paid and trusted to defend. Did he get dismissed, fined, and disbarred for his actions? No! The panel considering his appointment has been unable to come to a decision for 3 months. During this time, he is not allowed to hear cases, but he is allowed to "earn" his 6-figure salary. If he is reappointed, he will draw this salary for another 10 years. This is a no-brainer. No judge can preside over a trial without having some form of integrity. Given this history, no ruling Pearson will ever make will stand up. Every decision will be appealed because the judge is a moronic douche who can't even exercise even judgement in his own affairs. I surely hope this dickhead will be castrated, then shot in both kneecaps. Anything less would be a disservice to the rest of the country.
