You have seven separate grounds on which to dismiss a plaintiff's case. You are a bit paranoid, since if you fail to raise your 12(b)(2,3,4, or 7) in a motion or a pleading with one of the other 12(b) defenses or a 12(e) motion, you waive those objections for the rest of trial. Some might say that 12(b) is the biggest bully of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, but hey, somebody needs to keep the peace. You might not be the most popular guy in the office, but you're probably the most important.<BR/><BR/>Note: I couldn't fix it because I have no idea where it was going. I just liked the idea of being able to answer "Pink Floyd". I wonder how that effected the outcome.Rick Lugarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16957595491409017184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13522238.post-1148494529227547172006-05-24T14:15:00.000-04:002006-05-24T14:15:00.000-04:00Sweet!

You were a real hardass in 1983, when you snuffed out all legal creativity from federal proceedings and embarassed well-meaning but overzealous attorneys. You loosened up a bit in 1993, when you began allowing plaintiffs to make allegations in their complaints that are likely to have evidenciary support after discovery, and when you allowed a 21 day period for the erring attorney to withdraw the errant motion. Sure, you certainly won't get any brownie points for being outgoing, but you keep things on the up and up. It's pretty clear that the whole operation would fall apart without you around.</EM>Pro Ecclesiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03814831624547392519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13522238.post-1148493416365360012006-05-24T13:56:00.000-04:002006-05-24T13:56:00.000-04:00That's the rule that provides for sanctions to be ...That's the rule that provides for sanctions to be imposed against attorneys under certain circumstances.Pro Ecclesiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03814831624547392519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13522238.post-1148491279316164332006-05-24T13:21:00.000-04:002006-05-24T13:21:00.000-04:00But what is Rule 11(c)?But what is Rule 11(c)?mrsdarwinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03446744635277205867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13522238.post-1148491205843986972006-05-24T13:20:00.000-04:002006-05-24T13:20:00.000-04:00I wanna be Rule 11(c)!I wanna be Rule 11(c)!Pro Ecclesiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03814831624547392519noreply@blogger.com
