May 1996 - The All-Purpose "Brief in Opposition"

From John E. Farrow of Albuquerque, N.M. (Fairfield, Farrow, etc.) this marvelous brief filed in opposition to the plaintiffs' motion to reinstate a "truly frivolous wrongful termination suit" that the defendant had won in a jury trial. In a one-sentence order, U.S. District Judge Barbara K. Hackett (Eastern District of Michigan) denied the motion for reinstatement "for the reasons best stated in defendant's brief in opposition to the motion," which read in full:

Brief in Opposition to Plaintiff's
Motion for Reinstatement
Plaintiff has got to be kidding.

Respectfully submitted,
Simpson & Moran
