Now I’m going to go get extra nerdy and read that court case or settlement depending on what they did. Because that’s how this girl unwinds 💁*♀️
I've joined legal advice and BOLA (Best of Legal Advice) on reddit, and I was waiting for you to say the obligatory "I'm a lawyer, but not *your* lawyer," lol. I'm a legal nerd, too, and I have looked up Supreme Court cases when they are referenced in something I am reading, so I can see what they actually said. Not that I can always understand it completely, but I can usually get the drift.
Thanks for "coming out" to us here, and giving so freely of your expensive education. That's sew kewl!!
