Congressman Dennis Kucinich Sues House Cafeteria for $150,000

By Bill Marler, Esq.

According to the website Gawker, Congressman Dennis Kucinich is suing Restaurant Associates and three other companies involved in running and supplying the Longworth cafeteria after Kucinich bought a sandwich in April 2008 and bit into it only to find an unpitted olive that cracked a tooth.

Kucinich and I go way back. He was elected Mayor of Cleveland in 1977. He served in that position until 1979. At thirty-one years of age, he was the youngest mayor of a major city in the United States. In 1977 I was elected to the Pullman City Council at age 19. At that time, I may well have been the youngest elected official in the United States.

Dennis, why didn't you call? Perhaps he figured I would not have taken the case?
