Man says he's tired of being mistaken for MJ
A Portland, Ore. man has filed a lawsuit for $832 million, saying he is tired of being mistaken for Michael Jordan, according to KGW-TV.
The television station's Web site says Allen Heckard filed the suit against His Airness and Nike founder Phil Knight on June 29 in county court, claiming to have been mistaken for the basketball legend nearly every day for the past 15 years.

And he's tired of it. "I'm constantly being accused of looking like Michael and it makes it very uncomfortable for me," Heckard reportedly said. Heckard apparently is suing Jordan for defamation and permanent injury, emotional pain and suffering. He is suing Knight for defamation and permanent injury for promoting Jordan and making him one of the world's most famous athletes.......:rolleyes:

I bet his master plan is to be both the plantiff and defendant in court, pulling the ol' swap, never in the same room at the same time shenanigan. Brillant!

I'm getting sick of this type of thing two.
Nearly everyday I get someone saying "Hey, aren't you that guy from the 'Ding, fries are done' video".

Don't think you will get much suing him though. Well, maybe a life time supply of fries :D

Sad thing is that if he gets one of those liberal left coast juries, he'll end up with $$$$$$$ and free shoes for life.:(

Now that he mentions it - all those dark people do look alike. AZN do too.... and I guess Messican should be on the list to be fair.;););)

I've been an attorney for more than 30 years. Short answer on this is it won't go anywhere. It's just some poor bozo looking for attention and being dumb enough to let some schlock attorney charge him a couple of grand to file a civil complaint that some bored judge will have fun making into a paper airplane.
It's about as significant as a dead skunk in the middle of the road.

Don't you usually try to avoid the hitting the skunk carcass so you don't get stank juice on your rig? I do.
