The man who picked a fight with a piece of junk mail

MR. JEAN MARC RICHARD HAS WON A CASH PRIZE OF $833,337! In 1999, a letter with this claim from Time Magazine lands in a Montreal man’s mailbox. Most people would call it junk mail and toss it, but Jean Marc Richard is determined to get his promised payout, launching a court battle with one of North America’s biggest publishers.Host Falen Johnson and journalist Craig Desson rip open the case of Richard v Time to uncover one man’s quest for an elusive cash prize that somehow escalates into a Supreme Court battle over misleading advertising, and sets a standard for consumer rights that is still used today.
