Just Criminal

I might be a little late on this one. For those who haven't read this yet, it's quite appalling:

A judge is trying to sue a Dry Cleaners owned by an immigrant Korean family for a pair of lost pants... for $67 million dollars. Just when you think you have achieved the American dream, up comes this fat white guy who is crying over misplaced pants and slaps you with a lawsuit big enough to drive all your life's earnings into the ground. Legal fees and other expenses had to be paid out by the Chungs in order to fight Judge Pearson.

Just imagine this guy being in charge of a case you had to settle on. A miserable crook will determine the law of the American public. That's fucked. Oh but he does have a soft spot, you see, just recently he reduced his lawsuit to just a mere $54 million. What a sweetheart.
