It's what every cartoon aspires to: being referenced in a court opinion. From this Sixth circuit opinion issued last week the following footnote can be found:
Homer Simpson talking to God: “Here’s the deal: you freeze everything as it is, and I won’t ask for anything more. If that is OK, please give me absolutely no sign. [no response] OK, deal. In gratitude, I present you this offering of cookies and milk. If you want me to eat them for you, please give me no sign. [no response] Thy will be done.” The Simpsons: And Maggie Makes Three (Fox television broadcast, Jan. 22, 1995).
Hat tip: Above the Law.
And, if you find the concept of the Simpsons and the law to be inordinately fascinating, check out The Law of the Simpsons, brought to you by the Bench & Bar of Minnesota.
