It's the end of the world as we know it...

Politics, philosophy, the law, current events, left leaning debates, religion, baseball, football, pop culture, growing up Greek, random events in my life...whatever hits my mind at the time.

Welcome to 2005

So it's about 4:45 pm. A partner walks in and says, "can I see you in the fishbowl." (Big glass conference room.) I go in, it's a pow wow with another partner and two other associates about a case that the partner want to file summary judgment on. On the 19th. A week. Hmm...that means we have until Monday or Tuesday to get a draft done. Sweet...

    Bum. That usually takes up to a months worth of time right? (still trying to get the process down)

    So now I'll really confuse you - I gave you the GENERAL timeline. We can deviate from it.

    Here, we are filing a motion to dismiss or, in the alternative, for summary judgment BEFORE we file the answer or discovery starts. We can't win - the other side will just ask for discovery before responding - we are doing it so the court gets our version of the story in the Judge's mind from the very beginning.
