In the sedate and sober world of bankruptcy law, one lawyer's memorandum sticks out like a sore loser.
"Across the country the court systems and particularly the Bankruptcy Court in Minnesota, are composed of a bunch of ignoramus, bigoted Catholic beasts that carry the sword of the church," the Nov. 25 filing said.
It went on to call one bankruptcy judge "a Catholic Knight Witch Hunter," said one trustee was "a priest's boy" and claimed another trustee is a "Jesuitess."
It got worse from there.
Hastings lawyer Rebekah Nett also called U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Nancy Dreher and other court personnel "dirty Catholics." Then she expressed concerns over what might transpire at a hearing docketed for next week, writing, "Catholic deeds throughout the history have been bloody and murderous."
People who spend their time writing and reading legal documents were stunned.
"I've never seen anything in 30 years of practicing law like this," said Brian Leonard, a bankruptcy trustee. "This is so far over the line, it's in another world."
Nett got her law degree from the University of Minnesota in 1999 and is licensed to practice in Minnesota and Wisconsin. There is no record of any disciplinary action against her in either state.
Nett said she didn't want to talk about the memo, but did allow that Dreher "yelled at" her about it Tuesday. She wouldn't elaborate, and Dreher's office declined to comment.
Nett also said the views expressed in the filing - which carries her signature - were those of her client. "Did I write what was in that paper? No," she said.
That itself could create problems for the lawyer. Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure says that when a lawyer signs a submission to the court, she is attesting that she believes the submission.........

Yes, I understand they must be breathing.
Or, at the very least, on a life support machine.
She’s just trying to position herself to be Obama’s next Supreme Court pick (if he gets another one). She already has a head start since he only picks women.
I was thinking the same thing!
I seem to remember Animal Farm mentioning a ‘rule’ about this kind of thing.
Didn’t that go something like, “Civil cases are never civil, but some are less civil than others?”
Melanie Heber?
Audrey Farber?
Susan Underhill?
BETTY JO BIALOSKI!
To an immigrant from the Indian sub-continent, I'm told all we Americans "stink". I bet they just love the Frenchies...
But the heck is a Jesuit-ess?
Here we go;
..which is confusing. If regular 'ol Catholics are dirty, and these Jesuitesses were suppressed, uh, were they not dirty enough, or were too dirty even for the old Pope?
And how in the heck did these suppressed Jesuitesses get around to causing trouble for poor little Indian gas station/convenience store operators?
What did they do? Make him change out, replace his old rusty underground fuel tanks or something? Come calling for the State Sales Tax due? You, know, something low-down mean and dirty like that, just to be picking on a Hindu?
...it 'aint fair. The whole story stinks I tell 'ya...
Baahaha! I love it! “No, but squeeze the fox right there, maybe he’ll pass another one!
wow, that picture says it all
I have it on reliable sources that there is no such thing as anti-Catholicism in this country. Therefore, this filing must never have happened.
You whining romish papists see anti-catholicsm everywhere!
“That’s a man, baby!”
