(12 Jun 2007) HEADLINE: 54 million dollar pants case heads to trial --------------------------------------- CAPTION: The case of the Washington judge who sued a dry cleaning service that briefly lost his pants for 54 million dollars goes to court Tuesday. (June 12) ---------------------------------------- [Notes:ANCHOR VOICE] [Notes:Shot of pants on hanger] The case of the infamous 54 million dollar pants goes to trial Tuesday in Washington. [Notes:Shot of Pearson walking down street] Roy Pearson, a law judge himself, originally filed a 67 million dollar lawsuit against this dry cleaning service because - he alleges - the company lost a pair of his suit pants. [Notes:Set up of Manning] Chris Manning, the attorney representing the South Korean owners of Custom Dry Cleaners, admitted that the pants initially got lost. But he says they were later found and the company tried to return them. SOT: They have no doubt that they misplaced the pants for a very short period of time, and would be willing to refund him the $10.50 he paid for them to be altered. But by no means, is the damages in this case bordering on anything like $67 million dollars. It's outrageous. [Notes:Shot of Manning with pants] Pearson claims that the pants found were not his and filed a lawsuit based largely on a strict interpretation of Washington's consumer protection law....two signs outside the store had read "satisfaction guaranteed" and "same day service," which, according to Pearson, amounted to fraud. [Notes:Shot of exterior of Custom Cleaners] Custom Dry Cleaners disagrees.... SOT: With respect to the signage issues, we absolutely know that these signs would not be misleading to a reasonable person. [Notes:Shot of Pearson] Representing himself thus far in the proceedings, Pearson has refused to publicly comment on the case.
