It’s crazy to me that punishments aren’t being doled out in these cases. Like, this strikes me as more than a simple “oopsie.” This is gross negligence at best.
Judges are very reluctant to sanction lawyers. Most punishments come from the bar association after 100+ people complain, otherwise they are ignored.
I wonder how the judge would react if a lawyer just blatantly made up cases to back their argument. Whatever punishment - or lack thereof - for that should apply the same here, imo.
Wasn’t one of the SCOTUS decisions a made up case so they could rule? I can’t seem to find it now.
Terrible lawyers all the way down
