1010 WINS - NJ Man's Lawsuit Against Dell Settled
| Quote: |
PARAMUS, N.J. (AP) -- After five months and 19 phone calls to Dell employees, a New Jersey man sued the computer giant for losing his laptop, and his novel method of doing it has paid off.
Pat Dori, of Hackensack, sued Dell Inc. in small claims court, and had the papers delivered to a Dell kiosk at a shopping mall in Paramus rather than to the company's headquarters in Texas.
When no one from Dell appeared in court to answer the complaint, Dori won a $3,000 default judgment, and a ruling empowering court employees to shutter the kiosk and seize merchandise there if the judgment was not paid.
Now, Dell has settled the case out of court. Neither side would reveal terms. (continued)
