In light of recent college admissions scandal, a woman has sued Loughlin and Huffman for $500 billion.



Here is a man who filed for $2 undecillion dollars, in case you need to look it up, it is more money than exists in the entire world.
Dalton Chiscolm v BoA for $1,784 Billion Trillion



What is the point of suing for such an absurd amount? For any of these cases it is obviously not recoverable from the defendants in this lifetime or the next 100. Why would a judge entertain such lawsuits with those damage amounts, and why would a lawyer even attach their name to that kind of case?
