The law suit, which seems incredibly silly and more than a tad bit dramatic, has been going on for two years now. The South Korean owners of the dry-cleaning business have made it clear that they wish for Pearson to be disbarred and removed from his position because of the abusive nature of the suit.
The Korean family has owned their dry-cleaning business for seven years, but now they are thinking of abandoning their business and moving home. They have offered to settle with Pearson three different times, offering $3,000, $4,600, and $12,000.
"They're out a lot of money, but more importantly, incredibly disenchanted with the system," Chris Manning, the Korean family's attorney, told The Associated Press. "This has destroyed their lives."
The case will go to trial on June 11.
