Yeah, he was “lasso’d in” alright … by the smell of fame in fortune.

He had good reason to wait. He needed first to see what his cut of the grift would be.

Wood is just bat shit crazy. The partners in his law firm have asked him to get help and he refuses. They think he is crazy too…I tend to agree.

The backward movement of these idiots is just as lame, and stupid, and funny, as when they were moving forward with their bullshit litigation. “Why your honor, I was just holding this lawsuit for a person who had to go pick up their drycleaning. I don’t know who that person is or what’s in this.”

That would make a good T-shirt, especially with the right image:
“I stand with the Kraken”
Sure I stamped the drawings but I didn’t really check the design. Said no engineer or architect, ever.
ETA: well, not one that kept their professional registration anyway

Yeah, and maybe in a few years you can use it, at the moment it means “I stand with stupid”.
Have you seen the water flow analysis documents filed for the application to build a certain section of Wall™ along the Rio Grande? That engineer put his name on 8 pages of meaningless BS that looked like they were done in v1.0 of MS Paint. The application required a water flow analysis, but it didn’t require it to be good. They got the contract.

I’d forgotten about that. I suppose there are charlatans in every profession.
Generally though if a liscenced professional puts their name on something, they are responsible for its accuracy and saying “well I didn’t really read it” does not fly

It’s not gonna fly for these short shelf-life lawyers. Either they lent their name to a sanctionable court case, or they lent their name to something they didn’t read. Sanctions either way.

When you’re facing charge of active evildoing, I guess defending yourself with a claim of massive incompetence is a tiny step up.

I don’t think these lawyerfinks are going to get off with being told to take six hours of remedial lawyering training (the Kobach).

“Well over an hour”. Does 5 business days qualify? How about 3 weeks? If that was the phrase he used to indicate his lack of involvement, he deserves to be disbarred on the basis of the statement alone!

It is possible that she put someone on there without their permission, but it seems unlikely, especially since all of these lawyers were onboard the train at the time. In my field, any papers we submit to the standard journals results in an email sent to all the authors at the time of submission, so we know immediately if someone has put our name on something. There are journals that are scummy, and even put editors on their board without their permission, but we all know those journals suck and avoid them (unfortunately foreigners from poorer nations get sucked in by them).
Is there anything like that in the legal fields? You’d think that a court would send out announcements about a case to everyone working the case.

I’d also think that with the court documents systems being electronic and every attorney with accreditation in a court system having a unique numeric ID, that there would be a notification every time the attorney’s ID is referenced in a doc. Though if that were implemented poorly I could see attorneys turning that off due to the noise.
I laughed for 15 minutes when I saw that “analysis”.
It amounted to “water will flow this direction because I say so”.

Correct - These lawyers who are attempting to evade responsibility for these frivolous lawsuits whose purpose was to undermine the very democratic constitution they have an oath to uphold, cannot claim A/C privilege because they have publicly disavowed involvement in the litigation.
