    Was talking to buddy of mine and said if it was my firm I’d reconsider our firms participation in the frivolous suits. It’s just too bright a light. When Jones Day drops out will be a bellweather.

    If he loses, talking more about all he's accomplished

    That's a 30-second soundbite.

    It seems to me the path was paved for this when the Penn. judge forced their hand. "Was there massive voter fraud?" (paraphrasing)
    You say yes to push your client's claim, then you wind up in hot water. Oh, and you'll never get paid.
    You say no, then that kills your client's case. Oh, and you'll never get paid.
    What person in their right mind would want the job?

    yeah that's why the whole "The Trump Admin is not helping the transition" storylines are bullshit. First of all, there is no Trump Administration, unless you include the countless desks spread across all the agencies, and secondly, the ones still drawing paychecks aren't doing anything that anyone needs to be briefed upon.

    Federal Rule CivPro 11 (a) Signature. Every pleading, written motion, and other paper must be signed by at least one attorney of record in the attorney's name—or by a party personally if the party is unrepresented. The paper must state the signer's address, e-mail address, and telephone number. Unless a rule or statute specifically states otherwise, a pleading need not be verified or accompanied by an affidavit. The court must strike an unsigned paper unless the omission is promptly corrected after being called to the attorney's or party's attention.

    Rule 11(b) has been violated, the court may impose an appropriate sanction on any attorney, law firm, or party that violated the rule or is responsible for the violation. Absent exceptional circumstances, a law firm must be held jointly responsible for a violation committed by its partner, associate, or employee.

    (2) Motion for Sanctions. A motion for sanctions must be made separately from any other motion and must describe the specific conduct that allegedly violates Rule 11(b). The motion must be served under Rule 5, but it must not be filed or be presented to the court if the challenged paper, claim, defense, contention, or denial is withdrawn or appropriately corrected within 21 days after service or within another time the court sets. If warranted, the court may award to the prevailing party the reasonable expenses, including attorney's fees, incurred for the motion.

    Rule 11(b).

    (4) Nature of a Sanction. A sanction imposed under this rule must be limited to what suffices to deter repetition of the conduct or comparable conduct by others similarly situated. The sanction may include nonmonetary directives; an order to pay a penalty into court; or, if imposed on motion and warranted for effective deterrence, an order directing payment to the movant of part or all of the reasonable attorney's fees and other expenses directly resulting from the violation.

    (5) Limitations on Monetary Sanctions.The court must not impose a monetary sanction:

    (A) against a represented party for violating Rule 11(b)(2); or

    (B) on its own, unless it issued the show-cause order under Rule 11(c)(3)before voluntary dismissal or settlement of the claims made by or against the party that is, or whose attorneys are, to be sanctioned.

    (6) Requirements for an Order. An order imposing a sanction must describe the sanctioned conduct and explain the basis for the sanction.
