Lessons To Be Learned From Very Expensive Pants
Category: News Defused
RiskProf is having some fun with what is probably the most expensive pair of pants in the history of jurisprudence.
We Need More Flacks Like this One
The trial of the Administrative Law Judge who is claiming $54 million for a lost pair of pants at a DC dry-cleaner is being live blogged by a reporter from the Washington Post.Interesting tidbit ....
One colorful courtroom personality I forgot to mention earlier was a flack for the American Tort Reform Association, who showed up in a seersucker suit with a green lapel button reading: "$65 Million "Pantsuit' Perverts DC's Consumer Protection Law." So he was off by a few million (Pearson initially sued for $65 million but later reduced his claim to $54 million). The point stands. Everyone who wanted a button got one.
I'd like a button!
According to RiskProf, "the web log is our outlet for discussion of public policy regarding risk and insurance issues." Maybe, just maybe, the Administrative Law Judge is using his lawsuit to accomplish the same purpose.
