Do you obey the order, or do you figure that the first judge's ruling was good enough to give you cover?

"time passes" and a judge still grants a TRO? i think you might mean a preliminary injunction. And I'd ask the new judge for some time to change my product before shutdown.

You'd shut down the bridge the moment you read that report, or do you consider what you need to do to fix it, while still maintaining the critical traffic flow?

Blow it off. What do those engineers know, anyway?

Emergency Motion for reconsideration based upon a free speech/prior restraint argument.

Come on, leave the guy alone. We already know he can't count and here you are, asking him to demonstrate higher forms of logic? |

Hank's not the kind to live in the past.

(Yes, I know my re line is a differnt song.)

Hank is strangely reluctant to say that he'd obey the law, but I'm betting that he would comply with the injunction until the appellate court told him otherwise.

It's got so many people, but it's got no soul.
I'm happy someone gets me. No surprise that it's NotBob.

Oh, I get you, baby. Totally. And if Senor Hombre doesn't follow through on his dream about buying some land, and giving up on the booze and the one night stands, you call me. |
