Investors Sue Maker of Film on Kerry
2005-02-16
Schadenfreude time.

Two investors have sued a filmmaker for allegedly misleading them about plans for a documentary on the life of presidential candidate John Kerry.

The federal lawsuit filed Monday says brothers Marc Abrams and Russell Abrams were misled into thinking that George Butler, a longtime Kerry friend, and the film's producers were trying to make a commercially successful film.

Instead, the brothers allege that "Going Upriver: The Long War of John Kerry" was intended primarily to influence the 2004 presidential election in favor of the Democratic senator from Massachusetts. snip. Boring details about suit.

#1  Well, there ARE more interesting suits...

TYLER v. CARTER, 151 F.R.D. 537 (S.D.N.Y. 1993).
(Persecuted cyborg-woman sues Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter, Ross Perot, IBM, BCCI, NASA and the Rockefellers for conspiring to re-institute slavery through the "Iron Mountain" plan, and for perpetrating "the American Holocaust" against black women in concentration camps. She also seeks justice for conspiratorially-inflicted whispering campaigns, loud rock music and having her dorm room strafed by planes and helicopters. Perhaps 5.6 billion is too little.
