Roy Pearson Loses Again.
It’s Friday, and what would it be without a good laugh. Thankfully, my favorite laughingstock, Roy Pearson, is back in the news. If you don’t recall, Pearson was a ALJ who sued a dry cleaners for $50 million over a pair of pants. He got his ass handed to him by the Court for that one. I even think that the king of moronic lawsuits, Jonathan Lee Riches, found Pearson’s first suit laughable.
Not content to turn the other cheek after the first benchslap, Pearson also sued his employer, the District of Columbia, for wrongful termination after his contract as ALJ was not renewed. Last week, Judge Huvelle of the DCDC benchslapped Pearson yet again, dismissing his lawsuit for failing to plead “enough facts to
state a claim to relief that is plausible on its face.”
Hat tip to Lowering the Bar.
