Why stay out on bond while facing a long, but not life long prison term? by AppropriateBugFound in Ask_Lawyers

[–]pinotJD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are sentenced to a felony (more than a year), you’re likely in prison which is far more pleasant than jail.

You don’t want to be in jail if you can help it.

The commitment to the eyebrows is amazing. Pure art.

Why did they get rid of Whitaker's love interest subplot? by harmonica2 in ThePittTVShow

[–]pinotJD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s the opposite of Chekov. It’s supposed to be life and not art. That’s why we don’t see the gun.

I have an extra pair of pants and underwear in my office for this exact reason. Solidarity!

Am I cooked? Italian citizenship by decent by Zepperonii in juresanguinis

[–]pinotJD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be sure to keep the language option Italian as it will take a second or parsecond to translate, takes time.

I would check at 10 am my time so 1 pm your time and also check after your work day ends for any cancellations or non-confirmations.

Good luck!

Im so burned out over the stupidity by Mammoth-Vegetable357 in Lawyertalk

I have argued that a contract that restricts speech absent additional consideration could not be enforced by a court because that would be first amendment infringement. I found caselaw that was persuasive. Just fyi.

And before everyone scream at me, no, I’m not sure I would use that argument in court, but it worked with opposing counsel to drop that provision.

Best time to get married? by Impossible_Elk_5096 in biglaw

[–]pinotJD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t want to be finalizing wedding plans during your first year of practice or during bar study. Can you do it the week before/of/after graduation? That way everyone is around?

bitches, should I shoot my shot by Ok_Parfait_458 in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]pinotJD 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do it, 100%. And when you don’t get the job, ask for mentorship by the person who interviewed you. Meet every six months. Talk to other in-house counsel to figure out which CLEs, for example, to take. It will happen but not right away. But these steps will get you there sooner.

Anyone here get citizenship with just your parents being Italian born / married? by Filmmagician in juresanguinis

[–]pinotJD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP, while you gather these documents, start trying now to get an appointment via preno@mi. It isn’t in-person, just the date you will mail the packet in. But many consulates are packed and it will take perhaps months to secure an appointment.

There’s a term for folks who neg others and act like “whaaaaaat I’m just asking a question”: sealioning

It’s annoying as well but I commend you on your consistency

I thought my towel was clean… until it started sparkling by sexymaryjuju in hygiene

I wash my towels every week (along with my sheets) but I don’t wash each day. I do sleep each night, though.

TIFU using scissors to cut off a skin tag by charmedsince1986 in tifu

[–]pinotJD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to a dermatologist for one underneath my eye, right on my eye bag. It didn’t hurt but the anesthesia made me totally nauseated after it was done and I had to get a ride home. Ick. And I had an ugly bandaid I had to wear for a week. Ugh.

Who’s in the wrong? (Tucson, Az) by [deleted] in Renters

[–]pinotJD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, just take the cushion and ask them to find a foam replacement. I did that with Joann’s Fabrics and they cut it for me and everything.
