Legal Morons

This is my kind of law. Calling Lawyer a "Moron" Not Defamatory, Pa. Judge Rules [Law.com]. Judge Gene Cohen of a court of common pleas -- the lowest state trial court in Phildelphia -- said that when one party "blew his stack and called [the defendant] names . . . this conduct alone is legally undifferentiated from any common outburst of anger directed by one person at another person." Amen. It's one of my favorite phrases and now I know I can call any of the lawyers I oppose morons without slandering them. Not that the idiots (TFIs, which smart readers can decipher) would have the cohones to sue me, anyway!
