Hmm. This is interesting -- sent to me by a colleague. I wonder what Epic knows that the rest of us don't?

Well this was quite the watch.
A group of 10 Ottawa lawyers sent a police complaint AGAINST ANOTHER LAWYER, rather than block her on Twitter or LinkedIn, resulting in this video.

I feel like #WeaponizedLawyerStatus is overdue as a hashtag.
Also, I feel like it's easier to get the cops to go harass someone in a different jurisdiction than in their own.
Just having seen some similar shit.
Today in #WTAFF
❝ Does it count as sexual harassment if an assault lasts less than 10 seconds? ❞
I don't know. Does it count as murder if I stab you fewer than ten times? Does it count as battery if I punch you for less than ten seconds?
😐

Hello #LawMastodon
Anyone have the ruling in dismissing the Tulsa Race Riot case?
I can't believe the reason the media said is accurate and I wanna see for myself.
So #LawMastodon help me out here.
If I ran a salon (because lets use stereotypes) can I now refuse service to religious folks?
Cutting hair is my expression, and the law says you can't force me to violate my beliefs & cut a bigoted assholes hair.
Or am I in trouble because its illegal to discriminate on that protect class of religious belief, that can be changed at whim or if the mega church has a water slide?
In my mind if its the latter my protection is not equal.
That in which... oh just read it.
H/T - @Ugarles on the hellsite.

THIS SATURDAY: Join us for a powerful and transformative interactive abolitionist art exhibit
We will OCCUPY a Toronto courtroom
and UPLIFT the voices of Black, Indigenous, racialized incarcerated men

The City of Toronto prioritizes carceral responses to harm, funding increased policing and prisons, despite evidence of their racist and violent nature causing more harm.
We need to shift our priorities towards community-led solutions that centre the safety and well-being of all, particularly those most impacted by structural violence.

Just bought my first booth ever for my law firm at a convention... I keep telling myself I only need 1 lit client or 2-3 transactional clients from the event for this to pay for itself, but, damn, this is more than I spent on all marketing last year and I still need to rent booth furnishings, get event insurance, and buy decorations and swag.
@cspam This is hilarious. "Twitter is demanding that claimants must produce signed arbitration agreements" in order to proceed with their claims in private arbitrations that *Twitter itself* compelled.
As an occasional arbitrator myself, I know how I'd rule on a claimant's motion to return the case to a normal court. #lawmastodon
