This seems to be the sort of case that cries out for one of the Judge Judy-type shows. Don't you have some sort of mechanism to alert the media when you have one of these waste-of-taxpayer's-money/bizarre-enough-for-reality-tv cases?
If you don't have such a mechanism then maybe they pay a finder's fee?
