An Omaha lawyer who accidentally left his $500 pen at a courthouse security kiosk has filed a tort claim with the county over its disappearance.
Lawyer John Kerwin says the security office at the Douglas County Courthouse returned his keys, but not the Montblanc Meisterstück ballpoint pen, the Omaha World-Herald reports. Kerwin says the pricey pen was a gift from his uncle before his death.
Kerwin watched surveillance video and identified the security officer who last touched the pen. “I’m not accusing anyone of stealing anything,” Kerwin told the World-Herald. “He was just the last one who had custody of it.”
In his tort claim, Kerwin writes, “I just want my special pen returned to me.” If that’s not possible, he says in the claim, “then I expect the exact model replacement.”
