Let me offer a what might be a better story
Joe owns a store where he buys widgets wholesale and sells them retail.
A bunch of widget companies get together and pressure the rest of the
widget companies not to sell to Joe. Joe finds a lawyer and sues them
all for anti-trust violations. Years go by. The companies finally
settle for a few bucks with Joe without admitting guilt. The lawyers
get rich.
