Dry cleaner wins in $54 million suit for pants
Judge rules plaintiff must pay court costs

WASHINGTON - A judge ruled Monday in favor of a dry cleaner that was sued for $54 million over a missing pair of pants.
The owners of Custom Cleaners did not violate the city's Consumer Protection Act by failing to live up to Roy L. Pearson's expectations of the "Satisfaction Guaranteed" sign once displayed in the store window, District of Columbia Superior Court Judge Judith Bartnoff ruled.
Bartnoff ordered Pearson to pay the court costs of defendants Soo Chung, Jin Nam Chung and Ki Y. Chung.
I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm really happy about this. It was a stupid case to begin with, and I'm really glad Pearson is being forced to pay the court costs. I'd be even happier if he was forced to fold/iron clothing as a few month of community service.
