From Pro Football Talk:

“Though Giants receiver Plaxico Burress undoubtedly would prefer victory in a certain piece of criminal litigation pending against him, he finagled on Wednesday a victory in a civil action filed against him for damages to a vehicle.

An automobile dealer soutght $19,000 from Burress for damage to a truck that had been loaned to Burress, supposedly in exchange for making personal appearances.

A jury in Lebanon County, Pennsylvania found that Burress is responsible for only $1,700.

Burress likely spent more than $19,000 in legal fees to secure the result.  But, then again, no one ever has accused him of being smart.”
