Game of Thrones Inspires New York Lawyer To Demand Trial By Combat
Eric Dodds
He says there's no law specifically outlawing it.
Some people love Game of Thrones and some people really love Game of Thrones. A member of the latter group has taken it upon himself to act out one of Westeros’ most absurd and notorious practices: trial by com- bat.
Richard Luthmann, a Staten Island attorney, is demanding that one of the plaintiffs (or their “champion”) in the suit against him face him in a literal battle to the death unless the case is dis- missed. He claims that the practice has not been outlawed in the U.S. or New York state and is suggesting it to point out the absurdity of the plain- tiffs’ allegations.
“They want to be absurd about what they’re trying to do, then I’ll give them back ridiculousness in kind,” said Luthmann,
who shockingly confess- es to being a Game of Thrones fan. Luthmann’s bold challenge is in keep- ing with his history of full- throated public declara- tions and proclivity for wearing flashy suits and bowties.
Even so, he may not have thought this one through. On Game of Thrones, trial by combat is typically only requested when the accused has lit- tle chance of escaping with his life any other way. This is decidedly not the case for Luthmann,
who is accused of help- ing a client commit fraud, unless he values the $500,000 his client stands to lose more than his own life.
Luthmann has not divulged whether he would serve as his own champion or select a sur- rogate, though both par- ties would be wise to seek the services of Hafþór Julius Bjornsson, who plays The Mountain on Thrones and recently retained his title as Europe’s Strongest Man.
