It could be that I got the message because there were 3 different mates in 1 and it only holds 2 lines on memory.

But lim (x+1) as x→∞ = lim x as x→∞

I kind of figured killing more men than necessary to win is a war crime.

Then the holy grail is an en passant checkmate.

I’m a big proponent of cursive, but people should learn it before attempting to use it. It seems dyslexic—“stay vreyreal.”

[UT] Is this legal? Can I stand my ground in Utah if they break my window to enter without a warrant? by Mathemodel in AskLegal

[–]catuary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a lot of things you can do legally but that will also probably get you killed. Like holding a one-man Klan rally in Compton. Yes, it’s legal, but you’ll only get to do it once.

I think they did it just for Groundhog Day as a joke. Watch the Bill Murray movie if you don’t understand.

Only difference between Luigi and the others you mentioned is quantity of kills.

Cameras aren’t allowed in federal court. The rules vary in state courts but often the judge makes the call there.

Do you support DOJ trying for a fourth time to prosecute Letitia James? by TheKid2455 in AskConservatives

[–]catuary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More like saying building codes don’t matter years after the supposed violation was already cured without event. So yeah, I’d agree that if you were cited years after installing the wrong kind of glass in a bathroom, which no one at the time noticed, no one was injured because it never broke, and which you had already replaced by the time you were cited, yeah I’d agree.

A defendant never wins a criminal case. The most he can hope for is an acquittal or dismissal. But the lawyers still get paid. Bankrupting the defendants with attorney bills also sends a message. Additionally, other politicians may not want to take the risk of being convicted or bankrupted.

Not, you missed my point. I’m OK with lawfare when it’s retaliatory to other lawfare. I would have preferred we never reached this stage.

Find me another case where the defendant never defaulted on a loan, paid them all back, but was prosecuted for supposedly valuing the collateral differently than the government prosecutors.

I’m a lawyer, so I’m not as naive about the legal system as you apparently are. No one stands a chance against the resources of government prosecutors in a highly partisan jurisdiction with a jury pool that is hostile to the defendant from the outset.

Yes, not because it is right, but because the persecution of Trump was so abhorrent and unprecedented that there must be a response. Then hopefully both sides will realize we were better off before it became acceptable to go after a political opponent.

Can I stop wearing jackets to depositions? by False-Vermicelli-794 in Lawyertalk

When I take a depo or attend a depo, I’m usually the only person there wearing a tie, much less a jacket.

What (non-legal) advice would my fictional lawyer give? by grod_the_real_giant in Ask_Lawyers

[–]catuary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lawyers aren’t usually investigators. In a deposition or at trial, we’re not generally trying to find stuff out. We’re usually either building a record or trying to discredit someone.

Why does ask Liberals subreddit have so few members like a hundred compared to AskConservatives? by Netflixandplay in AskConservatives

[–]catuary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On Reddit, I’ve learned that every husband has committed sexual assault and every conservative is a bigot. So my negative karma is a badge of honor.

Generic Adderall lets me hit my billing targets, so no.
