Tip of the hat to Waller blog
By Geert De Lombaerde Posted on August 6, 2009 at 7:31 am
The National Law Journal shines the spotlight on Waller Lansden’s Young Lawyers blog, which regularly likes to take a light-hearted look at life in law.
Recently, GIBI posted “Don’t Stab the Messenger,” a story posted online in the Los Angeles Times in July 2009 about a Santa Ana, Calif. lawyer who was being served with civil court papers and was arrested after trying to stab the messenger with a large hunting knife. Although, the contributors state that they could not come up with a good idea in response to this post, their tongue-in-cheek post was in the lawyer’s defense: “The idiom is ‘Don’t shoot the messenger.’ No one ever told him not to try to stab the messenger.”
