There's no smackdown like a dry, precise, and very "not amused" judicial smackdown.

Can't we just give them a participation trophy and a pat on the head?

Fuck disbarment and monetary sanctions. Start jailing these fuckers. What for, you ask. How about perjury, defamation, and ultimately treason?

Try your scams at a conservative outlet. They are more likely to fall for them. You really need to know your potential customers first. Breitbart is that way-------------->

ummm.....Paralegals are high class legal secretaries in these instances, and shouldn't be lumped in with the asshole lawyers who pay them.

Paralegals are barred from practicing law. PERIOD. I took the paralegal course at Boston U so i could do research for the local anti-foreclosure group and help fill out papers for the local immigrants advocacy.

Because I was a certified paralegal, NO research could be done that was not explicitly authorized by a practicing lawyer .... what I could do before the course, I couldn't do after the course. Because I was a certified paralegal, NO papers could be filled out without the presence of a practicing lawyer ... what I could do before the course, I couldn't do after the course.

Are these laws strictly enforced? Depends. If you've got lawyers on the other side watching you closely yes indeed. The penalty is fines and jail.

I do hope they are sanctioned, and His Honor passes along a recommendation to the Bar for action.

The newspaper where I worked had its own library, and before there was such a thing as "online," that's where I navigated. "Oh, shit! It must be in the supplement. Do we have the supplement?"

It’s almost like our judicial system is getting as tired of this shit as we are.

I started hitting the law library in our rural small-county courthouse in '83.

Those first two albums were co-produced with Mitch Easter, whom I met when he was with Let's Active when opening for R.E.M., whom I've also met.

But I've also met Don, and had a great talk with him. I have many of his albums and CDs and 12'' singles, like the above song, and also a couple of rare promo 7'' singles of his band Arrogance - one of them has ''Your Sister Told Me'' on it, a great song Don later recorded in his solo career.

Also have some albums and CDs of his wonderful wife Marti Jones.They are very underrated and great musicians and great people.
