BUSAN, South Korea — A man filed suit in South Korea last week against his drycleaner to recover more than $1 million he allegedly would have won from a lottery ticket he left in a pants pocket.
A District Court in Busan will open an initial hearing tomorrow. The plaintiff, identified only as Mr. Song, filed suit for 1 billion won (about $1.1 million) against a local drycleaner, Mr. Kim. Song says he purchased the lottery ticket in February 2003, and left it in the pocket of a suit he sent to the cleaners.
