Wal-Mart Julie ends her lawsuit
Posted by Fired Fred on November 5, 2007 5:51 PM
Looks like the Wal-Martians managed to outspend everyone's favorite former Wallyworld marketing executive. Julie Roehm and the retailer people love to hate have dropped their lawsuits...
"The sole purpose for filing the lawsuit was to recover the severance pay that was outlined in that contract. I thought that a settlement agreement would be reached within a few weeks. Instead, the lawsuit has expanded into other issues, and has become more difficult and financially draining than I ever imagined," Roehm said in her statement obtained by CNNMoney.com.Moral of the story? Don't sue billionaires unless your last name is Gates, Buffett, or Google. Julie can go on with her life, which may or may not include her former subordinate, who showed up with her in a video from an awards show a few months after she was accused of banging him like a screen door in a hurricane.
Nice visual, isn't it? Yeah, I know Richard Parsons and Charles Prince got pushed out the doors of Time Warner and Citigroup. I know plenty of guys are excited about the cheerleading coach getting fired over her hot naked pics.
What can I say? Wal-Mart Julie was a lot more interesting to write about. Now she's broke, probably divorced too, it's just a matter of time until the Playboy Pictorial.
