Dude Sues For His Penthouse
The magazine, that is, not the dwelling. Unfortunately for Jorge Niebla, his current dwelling is a prison cell. And he's having a real hard time getting his Penthouse subscription. So, feeling aggrieved, and having plenty of time on his hands, he sued. Per the New York Post:
A Florida prison inmate is suing the nudie magazine because it refused to send a subscription to him behind bars.
Jorge Niebla, who is serving 13 life sentences for kidnapping and armed robbery, filed the two-page suit in handwritten block letters to Manhattan Federal Court.
"[I] would like to purchase the magazine ... but staff are being predjudice and don't have respect for my basic rights," Niebla wrote in the bizarre filing.
Penthouse couldn't be reached for comment.
A judge last week ordered Niebla to fill out a form to get a waiver of the $350 filing fee.
