Quaids: $10K Hotel Bill Got Lost in Mail

Couple didn't think they had to pay at checkout, moved before tab arrived: lawyer

Share

(Newser) – Randy and Evi Quaid didn’t pay the $10,000 hotel bill they’re accused of skipping out because it got lost in the mail, their lawyer told a Santa Barbara, Calif., court today. The Quaids didn’t think they had to pay upon checkout, and changed addresses before the bill—if not the law—caught up with them. Though they’ve paid, TMZ adds, they’re still due in court Oct. 19.

Every time Catherine would turn on the microwave, I'd piss my pants and forget who I was for about half an hour.

I rarely stay in a hotel. But I know that you pay before you leave. Next move involves them finding god. Reply

Let's ask another question. A $10K hotel bill? I hope they stayed at least 10 days, and ordered room service. Reply
