Listen to the Court the First Time

More chutzpah on appeal, this time in United States v. Collins, case no. 05-4708 (7th Cir., Dec. 14, 2007). A little out of my usual jurisdiction, but so outrageous I had to tell you about it (and once again sponge off the great work at Decision of the Day).

I’ll tell you only that this time the attorney gets spanked for making the exact same argument the court had described as “unbelievably frivolous” in a prior case involving the same attorney.

The argument? Go to this post at Decision of the Day, where you’ll also find a link to a page that shows the lawyer in Collins is not alone . . . and that the same argument is now being made in the U.S. Supreme Court.
