Another default judgment gets press coverage

Just yesterday I wrote about Verizon’s 33 million dollar default, and here’s another large default:

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (CN) - An Illinois prison inmate who strangled his cellmate must pay $13 million to the late cellmate's estate, and the estate of his mother, a federal judge ruled. U.S. Magistrate Judge Byron Cudmore issued the default judgment in favor of Sherree Daczewitz, who sued Corey Fox and Illinois prison officials for the February 2004 strangling of her son, Joshua.

Is there anyone in the blogosphere who will let me sue them for ten trillion dollars and get a default if I promise not to collect?  I can only imagine the amount of press that would get.

People – GETIING A DEFAULT JUDGMENT IS NOT NEWSWORTHY.
