Texas Flower Delivery Order Leads to Million Dollar Suit, Messy Divorce

Friday , August 10, 2007
MISSOURI CITY, Texas —

A Missouri City, Texas, man has filed a federal lawsuit against 1-800-FLOWERS, Inc. after they sent his wife a thank-you card for flowers he ordered for another woman.

MyFOXHouston.com reported Leroy Greer ordered a dozen red roses and teddy bear through 1-800-flowers.com for a woman while he was in the middle of divorcing his wife. However, at the time the flowers were sent, Greer and his wife were reconciled.

After Greer ordered the flowers in April, 1-800-flowers reportedly sent a thank-you card to his home, which his wife saw. She then called the company, and they faxed her a copy of the receipt, the note he sent with the flowers that read "just wanted to say that 'I Love you'" and a report of what he actually purchased.

His wife re-filed divorce papers and is asking him for a $400,000 divorce lump sum and $6,000 per month in child and spousal support. He is seeking more than $1 million in damages from the flower company.

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) - Adulterers, beware: Your cheatin' heart might be exposed by E-ZPass. E-ZPass and other electronic toll collection systems are emerging as a powerful means of proving infidelity. That's because when your spouse doesn't know where you've been, E-ZPass does.

"E-ZPass is an E-ZPass to go directly to divorce court, because it's an easy way to show you took the off-ramp to adultery," said Jacalyn Barnett, a New York divorce lawyer who has used E-ZPass records a few times.

Lynne Gold-Bikin, a Pennsylvania divorce lawyer, said E-ZPass helped prove a client's husband was being unfaithful: "He claimed he was in a business meeting in Pennsylvania. And I had records to show he went to New Jersey that night."

Generally mounted inside a vehicle's windshield behind the rearview mirror, E-ZPass devices communicate with antennas at toll plazas, automatically deducting money from the motorist's prepaid account.

Of the 12 states in the Northeast and Midwest that are part of the E-ZPass system, agencies in seven states provide electronic toll information in response to court orders in criminal and civil cases, including divorces, according to an Associated Press survey.

In four of the 12 states, including New Jersey and Pennsylvania, highway authorities release E-ZPass records only in criminal cases. West Virginia parkways authority has no policy. (Divorce attorneys in some cases can still obtain toll records from the other spouse rather than a highway agency.)

The Illinois Tollway, which hands over toll records, received more than 30 such subpoenas the first half of this year, with about half coming from civil cases, including divorces, according to Joelle McGinnis, an agency spokeswoman.

The New Jersey Turnpike Authority said it turns down about 30 subpoenas in civil cases every year, about half of them divorces.

Electronic toll records have also proved useful in criminal cases.

They played a role in the murder case against Melanie McGuire, a New Jersey nurse convicted in April of killing her husband and tossing his cut-up remains into the Chesapeake Bay in three matching suitcases in 2004. Prosecutors used toll records to reconstruct her movements.

Davy Levy, a Chicago divorce lawyer for more than 30 years, said toll records from I-Pass (part of the E-ZPass system) are useful in catching a spouse in a lie.

"You bring up the I-Pass records and it destroys credibility," said Levy, who has used such records two or three times for such purposes.

The E-ZPass network covers about half the East Coast and part of the Midwest, with about 2 billion charges per year. That can mean a lot of records. One of the busiest toll plazas in New Jersey, the Garden State Parkway's southbound Raritan plaza, gets about 90,000 E-ZPass hits per day.

She should send a thank you to the flower company for tipping her off. (although I doubt it's the first clue she had)

Geez, Zig... contrary to popular belief, many people in poor marriages actually do try to reconcile, especially with kids in the picture.

Yes, but usually when they do that, they stop sending teddy bears and love notes to the other woman...

You have to be careful in this electronic age.
Cookies can give you away. Only access certain accounts from work.

Getting paid by check you used to get your skim when you deposited it.

Now with direct deposit you have to set up getting it sent to 2 seperate accounts.

Most men have a hidden piece of paper with all their passwords and accounts on it. It cannot be kept in the house or other discoverable place.

When you go to the ATM NEVER push the button to get a receipt. Wives find them at just the wrong time.

Don't bury things in the yard. It is difficult to camoflage. The garage is the best place to keep things hidden but you have to be very careful. About 3 seasonal spots that rotate is best.

No, not saying it's ok, but if your going to do it cover your ass and be smart about it and never tell your spouse. He/ she shouldn't have to be hurt by it.

I'm sorry, a flower shop is not the morality police. What a bunch of pricks!

It doesn' matter if he and his wife have already filed for divorce before. It doesn't matter how many girlfriends he has, it doesn't matter if this husband is a cheating asshole. They sell flowers!!!! That's all they should do!!! Sell fugging flowers and keep their mouth shut!!!

If they were witnessing child pornography, pedophilia, sexual molestation or if they saw some creepy old man buying a dozen roses with a card for a little girl. . YES! TELL THE AUTHORITIES!!

But aside from that, a flower company is not set up to play private dick and tattle tale on infedility. They sell flowers for Christ sake!

I hope that flower stores owner gets an invitation to the Jerry Springer show so the guy they sold out gets the chance to kick him right in the balls!

My general thoughts on that particular statement is that if you can't remember your "hidden" accounts and passwords and are dumb enough to write them down, then you deserve what you get!

Just run linux, shred documents, and use a long, complicated, random password for everything. You'll be fine.
