Glad they did it. But the damage is done. They and folks like Suntrust can smoke a fattie. They'll need to when they see their Q3 and Q4 numbers.

Heh. Good to see nothing ever changes. My recommendation would be to allow it on the condition that whatever happens be aired on a live Web feed. A royalty, of course, being payable (you decide the rate and if residuals are included).

This topic comes up every two years or so. As I said last time, I've eaten at some pretty damned fine establishments (Russian Tea Room, Citronelle, La Cote Basque, Tavern on the Green, Restaurant Eve, and -recently- Inn at Little Washington and Restaurant Eve). For what you pay, I think the Great American Restaurants are a good deal. The food is somewhat creative, and the service is attentive.

OK. A general district court is the low level Virginia court. They'll hear misdemeanor cases, traffic, and civil litigation - including claims for monetary damages of under $15,000 (ONLY GDCs hear cases under less than IIRC $4,500 or $5,000). Cases are held before a judge - no jury. There may be some recorded notes or materials but there is NO formal record transcript. Because of this, all ap

Hi again! It's me - Legal Eagle. Here is my beach house in Duck. I sip Johnny Walker blue on the front deck and smoke Cohibas as the sunsets over the bay. If I get time off from my prep from my argument in Chambers at the Supreme Court tomorrow, I might be able to load up some pics I shot of my wife in San Tropez and in Bora Bora. Until then.

They're not looking to go to trial. Read Old Farte's post. He's spot on. Deep pockets looking for negotiated settlement (confidential, of course). I get the feeling that 4L may say fuck it and go for broke on this...The causation story is stretched.
