WASHINGTON, June 25 (UPI) -- A Washington administrative law judge has lost his $54 million lawsuit against a dry cleaner who allegedly lost his pants.

D.C. Administrative Law Roy Pearson had claimed he was defrauded by the "Satisfaction Guaranteed" sign hanging in Custom Cleaners, so he filed a multimillion lawsuit against his neighborhood drycleaner over his roughly $1,000 suit, The Washington Post reported.

A Superior Court judge dismissed his lawsuit and Pearson may find himself owing tens of thousands of dollars in the dry cleaners' legal fees, the Post reported.
