O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | I normall trash these things as soon as some dumbass forwards them.. but found this one amusing. I don't know if it's true... but humorous nonetheless. A Charlotte, N.C. lawyer purchased a box of very rare and expensive cigars, and then insured them against fire (among other things). Within a month, having smoked his entire stock-pile of these great cigars, and not yet having made even his first premium payment on the policy, the lawyer filed a claim against the insurance company. In his claim, the lawyer stated the cigars were lost "in a series of small fires." The insurance company refused to pay, citing the obvious reason: the man had consumed the cigars in the normal fashion. The lawyer sued....and won! In delivering the ruling, the judge agreed with the insurance company that the claim was obivolous, however, the judge stated that the lawyer held a policy from the company in which it had warranted that the cigars were insurable, and had guaranteed that it would indeed insure them against fire! without defining what is considered "unacceptable fire"- and was obligated to pay the claim. Rather than endure a lengthy and costly appeal process, the insurance company accepted the ruling and paid $15,000.00 to the lawyer for his incendiary bamboozle. NOW FOR THE GOOD 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 SENTENCED HIM TO 24 MONTHS IN JAIL AND A $24,000.00 FINE. This is a true story and was the 1st place winner in the recent Criminal Lawyers Award Contest. Rock over London. Rock on Chicago. Wheaties... breakfast of champions. | ||||
