Judge Orders 'Rock Paper Scissors' To Settle Fla. Dispute:

TAMPA, Fla. -- A federal judge in Tampa seems to think a game of 'rock paper scissors' will settle a dispute.

In an order, U.S. District Judge Gregory Presnell scolded lawyers for their inability to agree on a location where they can take the sworn statement of a witness in an insurance lawsuit.

Presnell ordered both sides to meet at a neutral location at 4 p.m. June 30th to play a round of the hand-gesture game often used to settle childhood disputes.

If they can't agree on the neutral location, they'll play on the steps of the federal courthouse.

The winner gets to choose the location for the witness statement.

If the loser disputes the game's outcome, that lawyer can appeal to the judge at a hearing on July 7.

Rock paper scissors has become serious competitive business in recent years, with regional tournaments determining the players in a world championship.
