THIS IS THE BEST LAWYER STORY OF THE YEAR, DECADE AND PROBABLY THE
CENTURY.
A Charlotte, NC lawyer purchased a box of very rare and expensive
cigars, then, insured them against fire, among other things. Within a
month, having smoked his entire stockpile of these great cigars and
without yet having made even his first premium payment on the policy,
the lawyer filed claim against the insurance company.
In his claim, the lawyer stated the cigars were lost in quote; a series
of small fires, quote; The insurance company refused to pay, citing the
obvious reason that the man had consumed the cigars in the normal
fashion.
The lawyer sued and WON! (Stay with me.)
In delivering the ruling, the judge agreed with the insurance company
that the claim was frivolous. The judge stated, nevertheless, that the
lawyer held a policy from the company in which it had warranted that the
cigars were insurabl e, and also guaranteed that it would insure them
against fire, without defining what is considered to be unacceptable,
and was obligated to pay the claim. Rather than endure a lengthy and
costly appeal process, the insurance company accepted the ruling and
paid $15,000 to the lawyer for his loss of the rare cigars lost in the
quote; fires
NOW FOR THE BEST PART...
After the lawyer cashed the check, the insurance company had him
arrested on 24 counts of ARSON! With his own insurance claim and
testimony from the previous case being used against him, the lawyer was
convicted of intentionally burning his insured property and was
sentenced to 24 months in jail and a $24,000 fine.
This is a true story and was the First Place winner in the recent
Criminal lawyers Award Contest.
ONLY IN AMERICA ! NO WONDER THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES THINK WE'RE NUTS.
