The Judge Got Judged…”Unresonable”!

I was visiting High Desert Wanderer yesterday and saw that he had done a post about the same thing that I planned on doing today, I told him then, “Our Brains Must be Connected, people are going to start thinking we are twins!” because there are many times we post about the same things and a lot of times even on the same day! Of course if I were you I would read his coverage on the story also as he has an entirely different source than I do!

Some of you may remember that on May 8th, I wrote a post entitled WHO JUDGES THE JUDGE?

It was about a law suit that Judge Roy L. Pearson brought against a dry cleaners for $54 million in damages for loosing his favorite pair of suit pants, (it was $65 million dollars at the time of my other post), but the dry cleaner owners claimed that the pants were merely misplaced for a short while and tried to return them, but Judge Pearson claimed that those pants were not the same pair he had brought in!

WHEW!!!!

Well, Monday, my question of WHO JUDGES THE JUDGE? was answered! D. C. Judge Judith, (another Judge Judy)? Bartnoff judged the Judge and she found him to be Unresonable!

Judge Bartnoff, upon hearing the case, ruled that Judge Pearson did not interpret the sign that read: “Satisfaction Guaranteed” in a Reasonable fashion.

“A reasonable consumer would not interpret ‘Satisfaction Guaranteed’ to mean that a merchant is required to satisfy a customer’s unreasonable demands,” D.C. Judge Judith Bartnoff wrote.

Judge Bartnoff ruled that Pearson must also pay the defendants’ court costs and other miscellaneous costs for the trial. The defendants, Soo Chung, Jin Nam Chung and Ki Y. Chung, a Korean family, has been seriously considering returning to Korea because this law suit has so disillusioned them about the “American Dream”, have also ask Judge Bartnoff to award them attorney fees, estimated in the tens of thousands of dollars which will be considered at a later date.

Judge Pearson, the suing judge, said during the trial that if he won, he would keep $2.5 million for himself and use the remainder of the award to encourage others to file similar lawsuits!! Don’t ask me, I don’t get that part!

When ask if the Chungs were going to put the “Satisfaction Guaranteed” sign back up on the wall of their dry cleaners their attorney said:

In order to avoid vexatious and frivolous lawsuits going forward, I think that sign is going to rest in peace!

I am so glad that this suit is over because it was getting so confusing!

Well, I Think it is over, I wonder if Judge Pearson is going to sue Judge Bartnoff for filing fees, court and other miscellaneous court fees because she did not give him… “Satisfaction Guaranteed”, but then again, she did not have a sign on the wall of her court room stating she would either!!

(It is expected that Judge Pearson will appeal the decision).

That’s if for me today! Hope to see you back again tomorrow for some more…
