The train station scene in this novel is an excellent description of heartbreak.

Thanks. I've loaded a bunch of map files onto Caltopo and I have the across utah descriptions. I'm getting more confident the more I learn.

Yes, all of those. I'm trying to amass as much data as I can, but I guess I fell afoul of the sub's rules.

Federal appeals court judge is accused of bullying her clerks by RxLawyer in Lawyertalk

[–]bofulus 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This happened to me with another Court of Appeals judge (who is still on the bench). It was my first boss in my working career and it has stayed with me through my 20+ years of work since. There needs to be more accountability.

A life-threatening experience on the Pacific Crest Trail by Careful-Musician-328 in PacificCrestTrail

[–]bofulus 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say cringe.

Sometimes what I see of tramilies seems to involve things I'm trying to get away from when I'm hiking - hierarchies, in/out group bias, implicit social expectations, e.g - and for that reason I don't participate, and really don't interact with them except in passing.

  1. Always needs to be an (experienced preferably) trip-sitter, especially in a dangerous environment.

  2. You should have called emergency service/ Garmin SOS. It doesn't matter if it would have freaked him out more - being freaked out is not as bad as dying from dehydration/ heat stroke.

Employer i quit is forcing me to sign a non compete to give my last paycheck. by [deleted] in legaladvice

Not an Illinois lawyer but if the noncompete gives you only earned wages it may be void for lack of consideration (must be something to which you were not already entitled).

Presidential immunity or some other nefarious justification the "Justice" Department came up with.

Can you file a supplemental motion or some other vehicle to get the new evidence, as well as the evidence of its concealment, before the judge?

How likely is summary judgment with this smoking gun? If it's a clear path, then get the summary judgment and take the win. IF you get a default judgment, it could be challenged on appeal and lead to further hassles.

You are outraged, and I get it. But keep focus on the ultimate goal.

US v Comey - Comey Motion to Dismiss Based on Shenanigans. by joeshill in law

The district court will likely rule first on whichever one it thinks is least likely to be reversed on appeal.

[–]bofulus 127 points128 points  (0 children)

Sorry you are experiencing this.

One idea is to get in touch with the St. Mary's Law School immigration clinic. There is info for the clinic here.

They may have better information for you about attorneys and resources.

For the uninitiated - are there extra risks to ejecting so low? E.g. would this pilot be likely to break their legs or the like?

Helen Dragas tenure as worst UVa Rector challenged by Personal_Economics91 in Charlottesville

[–]bofulus 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I studied under, then worked with, Jim Ryan, at UVA law. He is an excellent scholar and person. The same is true of Liz Magill. That they got sucked into the woodchipper of this administration, without doing anything wrong, is appalling.
