Do you have a public example of a sovereign saying something that has precedent?

[–] Sage_the_Lawyer 26 points 11 months ago (2 children)

The Wisconsin Journal of Family Law published an article about them a couple months back, their October 2023 issue. I'm not sure exactly how public that is, might only be for members. And for some reason I can't upload the pictures I just took to this comment. I'm probably doing something wrong, haven't shared pictures in a Lemmy comment before. I'll try something else in a bit maybe, or if anyone wants to walk me through it I'd appreciate it, but I can't spend too much time trying to figure this out right now. Work and all that.

But I kind of said it wrong for simplicity's sake. It's not that 1 in 100 filings has something (well, maybe it is, but...), it's that one of their strategies is to file a pleading with 100 points of nonsense, and then in that nonsense, they bury something that cites a real law which says a response is required. If you don't respond, you lose.

The article said don't engage them in face to face arguments because they're insane and that's a waste of time, but make sure to read their filings carefully.

Just for future reference, you can link to things using the following format:

[Your text here](Your link here)

If you want to embed the image to show up in-line with your comment, you add an exclamation point before the first bracket. And whatever you put in the brackets becomes alt text, which users can view by hovering over the image.

![Your alt text here](your link here)

To put it into practice, the exclamation point is the difference between the following:

Example link text
And
Example alt text

One note is that it’s typically best to start a new line when embedding, since some apps don’t quite know how to parse image width and will run off the edge of the screen (making some/all of the image unviewable.)
