What people here and, no doubt around the world, are wondering is this:
How the heck does a guy like this, a guy who starts crying over his lost pants, ever manage to land a job as an administrative law judge in the District?
The Post's Marc Fisher reports today that Roy Pearson was unemployed for two years before becoming a judge. He also reports that Pearson claims to have spent 1,400 hours preparing his lawsuit against the dry cleaner who lost his pants.
That's 35 full 40-hour work weeks! Goodness. When did Judge Pearson find time to actually adjudicate?

The real question is why aren't we impeaching the judges who allowed this frivolous case to be heard?

I'M afraid "Judge" Roy Pearson is clearly adding to a new breed of terrorism. I would label his tactics as "Litigation Terrorism". With taxpayers being the hostages. Can we disbarr this guy?

This jerk needs to be disbared from law. These types of frivolous lawsuits are what is totally ruining are system and tying up our courts.

This "Judge" Roy Pearson must be investigated for mental disorder and promptly kicked out from his job. It is really scary that people like these are judges. Something is really very wrong here.
