Wow! The complainants attorneys are an impressive group.
I just skimmed the first few pages but this looks (not at all surprisingly) like a solid and well reasoned complaint. I look forward to seeing this move through the so called courts.
Thanks for this post Belsnickel!
JOHN ROBERTS: From time to time in the years to come, I hope you will be treated unfairly so that you will come to know the value of justice... I wish you bad luck, again, from time to time so that you will be conscious of the role of chance in life and understand that your success is not completely deserved and that the failure of others is not completely deserved either.
