Hi,

Call me at any of the numbers below.
Thanks,

Hung Out To Dry
Dry cleaner closes; customers can't get clothes
Updated 12:15 AM EDT, Wed, Mar 25, 2009
Another Washington-area dry cleaner could be facing a lawsuit soon.
Customers who have stopped by to pick up their freshly-pressed items at Cornerstone Cleaners on U Street Northwest have been greeted by locked doors.
Some who tried to call the owner were told their clothes might be at an off-site facility. Others only got a message saying the voice mailbox was full.
This week, a handwritten note appeared in the door. It says the cleaners has gone out of business. Customers are directed to the building's management company.
Landlords opened the building Monday to help customers reclaim some of their items. But many left empty-handed; their clothes supposedly at the off-site facility. But the landlords don't know where that is.
"I have 20 shirts in there," said former Cornerstone client Suleiman Vick. "That's [worth] like, $200."
Stay tuned to find out if any administrative law judges have pants missing.
