Alexi is a DEI hire. If we want American representation on this show, just throw a journalist in there. We have plenty of good ones, and this is so embarrassing.
@jz_jszgr1@Mike_from_PA@HasanabiProd “Taking plaintiff’s allegations as true” is the standard for judgments on the pleadings. Not specific to copyright. The judge said “you get the benefit of the doubt on every point, but you still lose”
@GsuGrinding Imagine being in a military town (like San Diego).
Only heard secondhand accounts but getting a DVRO against a military respondent is a crazy fight. Obviously it’s a more serious issue at that point though
@yhdistyminen All the election deniers are so focused on Georgia but Trump STILL LOSES if you give him the state!
It’s like when there’s a bad call in a basketball game but your team lost by 20.
@Global450@matthewstoller Brother this is nonsense!
Using your logic, all zoning is a taking. Govt zones property as residential and highest-bidding commercial developers are barred from competing.
Euclid is the big case on this: selecting WHO can bid is police power (not a taking).
@GsuGrinding My favorite kind of hearing is when the order is deterministic, but the court really doesn’t like how the winning side is arguing. I see it all the time
@GsuGrinding We’ve come a long way in the past 3-5 years though. Lots of reforms applying retroactively. I did many petitions for FM LWOP guys when I was in law school.
@CadessborX@TiberiusScitus@JamesSurowiecki Is that true? Again, I don’t know how it works.
I’m sure they have broad discretion and classify whatever they can. But how do you, functionally, classify an invented story before you know about it?
@CadessborX@TiberiusScitus@JamesSurowiecki I don’t know anything about the classification process, but wouldn’t it have to be real information to be tangible? I guess you could classify “known untruths,” but then the lie has to exist/be referenced somewhere.
@BigHakDropping@Vedthalegend@ASFleischman Each litigant bears their own costs unless there’s a prevailing party provision/fee shift in the statute.
It’s actually called the “American Rule”
@DouthatNYT “Competitive authoritarianism” is also defined by the checks that opposition has on the state, at least per the political theorists behind the term.
You’re right that just bending rules to stay in power isn’t enough- it requires some kind of sway by the perennial opposition.
@SellersCounsel@REdebtlawyer I’m not sure how old you both are, but I’m a third year.
The unpredictability of assignments is what makes us miss things, not the number of hours worked. Sometimes things just come up and it’s our job to assist. Not a lot of discretion for flexibility there.
