NEW: Fischer v. Remington (S.D. OH): Federal judge orders man to pay Hornady $3,600 after falsely claiming that his rifle contained the company's ammo when it exploded, when it was actually using handloaded ammo from 1993. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…

From Hornady's motion for sanctions: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…

Mr. Shope sent a letter to the court last May after learning that Hornady wanted sanctions against him, where he said that the company "was kinda nasty with me" and that "it wasn't a deliberate lie or my grandson would have won, not lost."

And if you're wondering why the plaintiff wasn't at this hearing, it's because he already signed a settlement with Hornady where *he pays the company* $30,000: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…

Update: The judge says that he "abused the judicial process by deliberately misrepresenting facts essential to the case throughout its lifespan, ultimately causing the Defendant to incur significant legal costs." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
