Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit May 11, 2001, 00-4207 (Robert Anthony Johnson v. City of Evanston, Illinois)

EASTERBROOK, Circuit Judge.

Robert Johnson took his car to Doc Abie’s Auto Clinic in Evanston to check a leak. On being told that costly repairs were necessary, he instructed the Clinic not to do the work and set off to retrieve his car. When he arrived, however, the Clinic told him that the work had been done anyway and that the bill was more than $950.
