 $54,000,000 for a pair of missing pants.
D.C. law judge broke down in tears and had to take a break from his testimony because he became too emotional while questioning himself about his experience with a missing pair of pants.
Administrative law judge Roy Pearson is representing himself in civil court and claimed that he is owed $54 million from a local dry cleaner who he says lost his pants, despite a sign in their store which ensures "Satisfaction Guaranteed."

Kinda old news, they just updated the claim and dropped it a bit in price. I think I posted it here a month or so ago when it first popped up.

the plaintiff is a lawyer, its the defendant lawyer that must be making lots.
