'Professional' litigant plans another suit
May 31, 2010 - 0 comments
New York -- A homeless man in New York, infamous for filing lawsuits when businesses or institutions eject him for his body odor, has a new target, observers say.
Richard Kreimer, 61, who won a $23,000 suit 20 years ago when a New Jersey library kicked him out, says he's going to sue Amtrak in Philadelphia, claiming they had police forcibly eject him from the station there, the New York Post reported Sunday.
Kreimer, who hires lawyers to fight his battles, considers litigation his "profession," the Post reported.
He has filed 18 lawsuits against businesses like drug stores and restaurants and the New Jersey cities of Morristown, Summit, Newark and Woodbury accusing them of violating his civil rights by kicking him out of public places.
Many who've dealt with Kreimer consider him a plague on taxpayers and business owners, the newspaper said.
"It's legalized extortion," said a lawyer who once opposed Kreimer in court, insisting on anonymity for fear of legal retaliation. "He's exactly what's wrong with the legal system."
