Take THAT Opposing Counsel!

I spent all day today reading pleadings. I think I have a taste for litigation (as opposed to transactional) work, because even though the binder was roughly 500 pages, I enjoyed reading every bit of it. It's like a reading a novel, where the excahnge of memos and motions etween attorneys is builds up tension, until it rises to a crescendo and each court ruling being a mini-climax.

Adam and Ashley were in me office all day, sorting through encroachment permits. Good bonding time. At one point during the pleading reading, I came across a really good argument made by my assigning attorney. I pumped my fist in the air and screamed "TAKE THAT!," to the surprise and horror of Adam.

Lunch: Just the summers and I at a random restaurant. I guess what that 2L said about free lunches isn't true everywhere. We don't have ALL of our meals paid for. Then again, $8.50 isn't too much to spare given the posh meals we get the rest of the week.
