World's Most Litigious Man Sues Guinness For Saying He's The Most Litigious

Jonathan Lee Richards was recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records as the person who has filed the most lawsuits in the history of mankind. After hearing of the honor, Mr. Richards, aka. "Johnny Sue-nami," promptly filed an injunction in federal court to stop the company from bestowing the coveted title upon him, claiming that the moniker would cause him imminent danger and bodily harm. He then sued a dog for barking, the sun for not shining long enough, and his neighbor just for snoring too loud.

    Hmm. I guess Weird Al is going to be on his list, then, as well for this song.

    His last name is Riches, not Richards, and he's batshit insane. He's in prison, and just occupies his time launching frivolous lawsuits against anyone and anything he can think to sue. He's tried suing everyone from Britney Spears to Somali Pirates to the Eiffel Tower to the Garden of Eden. If he reads this, he'll probably list me in his next lawsuit. That's just what he does.

      You don't need a lawyer to sue. You can do it yourself if you have lots of time on your hands, and time is pretty much the only thing that prisoners have lots of.

      You need the money for the filing fees.
