Man sued God to court for been unkind to him

An Israeli man has petitioned the Haifa Magistrate's Court
for a restraining order against God, claiming the Almighty
has been particularly unkind to him.
The initiator of the request, a resident of the northern
port city, represented himself in court, the Walla news
site reported on Wednesday.
A protocol of the hearing noted that God did not turn up
for the session, although it did not specify how the court
determined the Omnipresent was not in fact there, as
opposed to merely exercising the right to remain silent.
The petitioner, who was not named in the report, noted
that he had tried to obtain the restraining order from
police for the past three years but that police had merely
sent a patrol car to his home on 10 occasions.
He argued that over a three-year period God, had
exhibited a seriously negative attitude toward him,
although details of just what divine mischief he had borne
the brunt of were not mentioned in the report.
Presiding Judge Ahsan Canaan denied the request, which
he said was ludicrous, asserting the applicant needed
help not from the court but rather from other sources.
The report did not include a response on the outcome
from any of the multitude of available spokespeople on
behalf of the Lord.
