It is not supposed to be necessary for an attorney include a statement asking that the Judge take Judicial Notice of existing laws, or the Constitution.
The old saying regarding cases is:
If the law is on your side, you pound the law.
If procedures are on your side, you pound the procedures.
If neither are on your side, you pound the table.
It appears that Bloomy intends to pound the table.
Tupper Saussy traced the lineage of the word “attorney” back to the Sanscrit “torwa” meaning “to TWIST.”
That should tell us all we need to know about THAT “profession” and why it’s first cousin to the oldest in the world.
I don’t know any pig farmers, but i’m pretty handy with my army surplus e-tool.
As my brothers t-shirt says, “Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco & Firearms” should be a convenience store, not a government agency.
If a legal principle is widely accepted, it need not reach SCOTUS to apply.
...conversely...
Just because SCOTUS has _not_ ruled on something doesn’t mean it ain’t so.
Too bad Miller has been so commonly misread, since according to Miller, trial court is the correct place to decide whether a particular weapon is of reasonable military utility.
Well, then somebody needs to arm the city's criminals proportionately. These poor guys are trying to ply their trade (crime) and have a limited source for guns. Other states need to step up to the plate.
Bet the cost of treating aids patients ranks right up there with gun crimes, but I don't see this mayor going after places like San Francisco or Haiti. And this guy gets away with having an (R) after his name. Lordy Lord, we are so screwed when a liberal can get away parading as a conservative. That's the real crime, imo.
I saw a Superior Court judge here in Reno, Nevada threaten a man with immediate jail time if he said the words “US Constitution” again in his Court.
It sounds like Bloomberg is just another political whore. The NYC attorneys sound like a bunch of pimps.
How dare the two of you insult whores and pimps so egregiously by comparing them to Lawyers! (not all lawyers of course but a great many of them)

So, what's the difference between a whore and a lawyer?
When you die, the whore stops screwing you.
Touche!

Sorry.
Reminds me of the difference between a lawyer and a carp.
One is a slimy, voracious, scum-sucking bottom feeder.
The other one is a large fish.
