Federal Judicial Humor
Federal Judges Can Be Funny Too!
Federal Magistrate Steven Crocker not only rules that Microsoft should not be sanctioned, but lambastes opposing counsel for bringing the motion in one of the funniest rulings I have ever read in my years of practice.
Ironically, most of the disparaged opposing counsel is from Niro, Scavone, Haller & Niro, the very same firm Rockwell Automation, Inc. sued last December for allegedly filing “baseless, sham” patent infringement suits. With a record like that, one might begin to wonder if someone up there doesn’t like some lawyers.
I guess it’s the 90% that give the other 10% of us bad names.
