Did You Get a Free Bowl of Soup With Those Pants?

According to this story from ABC news a judge from Washington D.C. is suing a dry cleaner for $67 million. Why do you ask, did his child get hurt or mangled while in the store, or did he suffer some physical injury that will prevent him from doing his job? Not exactly according to the story the dry cleaners lost a pair of his favorite pants. The same pants he wanted to wear during his first day on the bench.

He says in court papers that he has endured "mental suffering, inconvenience and discomfort." He says he was unable to wear that favorite suit on his first day of work. He's suing for 10 years of weekend car rentals so he can transport his dry cleaning to another store.

What is even more absurd later in the story it mentions that the owners of the dry cleaners offered this man $12,000, but he would not budge. I guess you shouldn't mess with a Judge's pants. What's worse is that nobody was going to see his suit anyways, he is wearing a robe for God's sake.
