Gas Attack Lawsuit
Some details from the 1986 case of Tom Morgan v. Randy Maresh: Plaintiff alleges that the defendant has willfully and maliciously inflicted severe mental stress and humiliation on the plaintiff by conduct outrageous in the extreme by continually, intentionally and repeatedly ‘passing gas’ directed toward the defendant. That for reasons unknown to plaintiff, defendant was hostile toward plaintiff and expressed his hostility by the conduct described herein. That defendant would continually and repeatedly seek out plaintiff on the premises of Albertsons (the supermarket), while plaintiff was engaged in his employee duties. That defendant, after locating plaintiff, would position himself in the proximity of plaintiff so as to direct his ‘gas’ toward plaintiff, humiliating plaintiff and inflicting severe mental stress upon plaintiff. As a direct and proximate result of said outrageous conduct, plaintiff suffered, and continues to suffer, emotional distress and humiliation… Wherefore, plaintiff prays for judgment against defendant in the sum of $50,000 for general damages and for $50,000 punitive damages and for his costs and disbursements incurred herein. The case was eventually dismissed. Syracuse Post-Standard – Oct 17, 1986 Spokane Chronicle – Dec 14, 1987
