Man learns casino losses not deductible
IRVINE, Calif., Aug. 31 (UPI) -- A California recreational vehicle dealer says he wants to resolve the lawsuit actor Taylor Lautner filed against him with a push-up contest instead of a trial.
Brent McMahon, 47, owner of McMahon's RV in Irvine, said he wants to settle the lawsuit brought against him by the "Twilight" film series star, who claims the dealership failed to deliver a $300,000 customized RV on time and up to his specifications, with a contest of muscles instead of legal wrangling, KTLA-TV, Los Angeles, reported Tuesday.
McMahon, who claims the RV was delivered to Lautner without any complaints from the 18-year-old actor, said he is challenging the muscular star to a contest to see who can do the most push-ups as a means of resolving the dispute.
However, should Lautner refuse the challenge, McMahon said his lawyer is ready to defend him against the suit, which is seeking $40,000.
