Oral arguments are really the least important part of an appeal. Sometimes you can change a judge's mind or get one off the fence by clarifying a point for them, but decisions are mostly made based on the briefs. And what happens if they're wearing boxers? For the record, does anyone from the SC actually check in on her to make sure she's still alive and cognizant? If she's not able to speak and no one has seen her, what is the assurance that she is indeed alive and capable of doing her job? Asking for a friend.

The rules are quite clear: boxers are unacceptable. Rule 3.14(i)(5)(ix) requires tighty-whities or gtfo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very true. If she's in late stage lung cancer she could be really incapacitated and heavily drugged with opiates. It would not put it past the Dems to do a Weekend at Bernie's with her until 2020.

3rdnlng Posted January 21, 2019 Author Share Posted January 21, 2019 Every notable person including some that are not have their obituary written prior to their death, and I would assume that graphics for tv or internet are created in advance so that they can immediately put it on the screen when that person dies. That's not the news here. Posting it is the news. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
