Talk About Practicing Before the Bar!
Too good not to swipe:
What makes it priceless is that the judge apparently granted the durn thing. Me, I think the emoticon probably tipped the scales. Before you get all excited at the prospect of being able to use inebriation as excuseable neglect, however, our Chianti Counsel seems to have withdrawn and refiled the pleading later, presumably with a more, ah, sober showing of good cause. Go on over to Above the Law for more, including a screedy response in the comments from the lawyer involved.
Yips! to Nasty, Brutish & Short.
