Boozy’s Legal Funhouse, Episode 17: *OwO* Notices Your Fact Pleading Requirements

Join Boozy for a dry discussion of pleading requirements in filing Complaints, Answers, and other pleadings at the beginning of a lawsuit.  That’s right, because the thing you really wanted to do today was sit through an hour and a half of some guy yelling at Civil Procedure, the Calculus of Law.

Also included:  A federal judge refuses to abide by sentencing minimums, another judge is required to fund Arkansas’s bustling life coach industry, and a prosecutor walks back a targeted policy to screw over one lawyer in particular.
