Judges, Juries, Lawyers, Damn Lawyers, and God-Damn Clients

Please excuse the profanity in this article’s title.  It is a rare use.

At I write this article, the $65 million Lost Pants trial is underway in a DC courtroom.  A schmucky DC judge has decided to play both the role of greedy, unethical client and greedy, unethical lawyer.  Add to this that the presiding judge in the case did not bother to throw it out and tell the schmuck to go to Hell.  I assume that the case is being tried before a jury.  I can only hope that enough of them have enough sense to tell the schmuck to go to Hell.  It would be nice if there is some mechanism whereby the defendants can recover their costs of defending themselves from this schmuck.  I would also ask that the schmucky judge be impeached or otherwise removed from The Bench and then disbarred.

“Damn Lawyers” is a largely unjustified slam on practitioners at The Law.  They are merely a reflection on We The People as a whole.  It is you and me who have gotten into the mode of thought that says, “I chipped my nail — jackpot!”  If We The People don’t run to a lawyer with our unethical greed, we will not find an unethical, greedy lawyer to take our frivolous cases and gum-up the works for those among us who truly have been wronged and deserve justice.

I understand that…like vampires — who also suck the life out of their victims…unethical, greedy schmucks also cast no reflection in a mirror.  So…please…look into the next mirror that you come across and see what it says about you…
