WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. -- A jury rejected a man's claims he should be compensated for a sleep disorder suffered since was served the wrong soup at a restaurant.

Donald Johnson, 64, sought $55,356 from the Shoney's restaurant chain. The jury instead awarded him $407 for medical bills.

Johnson, of Lake Worth, said he had to have emergency medical treatment in 1995 after eating clam chowder when he had ordered potato soup. He said an allergic reaction left him with psychological and sleep disorders.

He rejected a $1,000 settlement in 1999.

"I thought it was a silly case," Shoney's attorney, Charles Rice, said Tuesday.
