Followup to the $54 Million Pants Lawsuit
Who can forget the Chung family, owners of the DC dry cleaners who were sued for 54 million dollars by the administrative law judge Roy Pearson who complained they had lost his pants?
The couple won the case and are now featured in a video by tort reform forces.
DCist.com first posted the story with these comments.
"It's pretty heart wrenching to watch Jin and Soo Chung come to tears over the stress that Pearson's $54 million suit brought them. But it's also pretty startling to see powerful lobbying groups for business interests like the U.S. Chamber of Commerce hold up the Chungs, who were the victims of a lawsuit so unusual and outlandish that it earned international media attention and a relatively quick dismissal, as being representative of larger problems within the U.S. legal system. Does one Roy Pearson mean tort reform is imperative? We're not so sure", writes DCist.

I am honestly restraining myself from using inappropriate language. This is mind-boggling. We are speaking of a pair of pants. This world is seriously upside down.
How can this individual be so heartless to ruin another human being life over a freaking pair of pants? My heart is split into pieces because I can’t visualize this being real. I have a huge heart and I would never wish anything bad on anyone, but this individual will not have good luck simply because God don’t like ugly. I watch the video and my heart goes out to the Chung’s. I can’t continue writing because of the tears coming from my eyes.
