OTR: Professor V on codeine

Well, this is going to be interesting…

Professor V: “Having just taken my codeine cough syrup, we will get a chance to see what hallucinations look like when imposed on Civil Procedure.”

Lawyers have a knack for understatements.

A defendant files an answer to a 32-count complaint: “We neither admit nor deny the allegations, but demand strict proof thereof.” The judge dismissed the answer and entered it as an admission – ie, the defendant was screwed.

Professor V’s analysis?

Professor V: “Pleading is not an area that permits creativity by lawyers.”
