Legal Antics: Greatest reason for a continuance.

July 27, 2007

Greatest reason for a continuance.

Did I say "greatest"? I meant "lamest". Via Lowering the Bar, I offer you my favorite part of the following ridiculous affidavit:

The approaching weekend is Labor Day weekend, leaving little, if any time between now and Sepember 6th to complete the work needed for filing Petitioners' response to the motion for hearing. In addition to the normal preparations for her family and office, undersigned counsel has seven puppies (born to her King Charles Cavalier) that are dependent upon her and additional preparations are needed for the possible Hurricane.

Damn.

It reminds me of a job I had when in high school. A friend of mine got to work late, and our boss, who was a rather crusty fellow demanded "Why in the hell are you late?" My friend looked him in the eye and said, with a straight face, "I was having a wet dream and didn't want to wake up." What could the guy say?
