pearson is denied... again

An update on the Pearson vs. Custom Cleaners pants saga, which just plain refuses to die... yesterday, Judge Bartnoff summarily denied Roy "Sucka" Pearson's motion for reconsideration. Of course, Chris Manning, attorney for the Chung family, is expecting Pearson to file an appeal of this order in another thirty days, in additino to filing his appeal of the original verdict by July 25th. Of course! Manning also expects him to appeal any favorable ruling on the Chung's motion for attorney's fees, which is forthcoming. As expected, Sucka Pearson doesn't seem to want to end the fight for his pants.

Just a reminder... the U.S. Chamber Institute for Legal Reform and the American Tort Reform Association are hosting a fundraiser for the Chung family next Tuesday, July 24th at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Please consider donating to the Chungs' defense costs, and just generally showing your support for them and their ordeal.
