THE ROBING ROOM

In response to comment #17401 below: Judge Rosenthal is one of the brightest judges in the state -- and arguably in the circuit -- and she has *zero* tolerance for b.s. cases. It makes no difference how 'well-researched' your briefs are: if a case is b.s., it's b.s., and thanks to the copious amount of research that she does prior to any hearing, she'll know it from the get-go (and often do what she did in your case: ask the defense for its MSJ even before anything's been formally written). Sorry if you're butthurt over it, but it's your own fault if you can't manage to come up with more than a scintilla of evidence to prove that you have any sort of case.
