W. Va. residents sue bogus P.I.

West Virginia Record | W. Va. residents sue bogus P.I.: "A group of eight West Virginia residents are hoping they can receive some final justice against an alleged private investigator who they claimed failed to make good on his promise to look into alleged corruption the state's judicial system.

On March 16, the residents filed suit in Monongalia Magistrate Court against Jon L. Gigliotti of Lyndhurst, Virginia. The residents -- Patricia A. Lemley, Robert Hart, Elizabeth Crawford, Gil Vanderkraats, Tom Mullins, Sheryl Hobbs, Sue Hollands and Paul and Gloria Ransom -- are seeking $2,650 from Gigliotti, the amount they paid him for a 'retainer.'

The case was originally scheduled for trial May 17. However, in order for all to be considered co-plaintiffs, they each had to file suit against Gigliotti and serve him with papers."
