Well...
A just verdict, with all weighed and measured.
That judge should have been done for money-wasting though.

I'd have sent him to a kiddie's farm in India to work 16 hours a day making nikes or something.

I think he had to pay the other guy's costs, but he nearly wrecked the other folks' lives.

I'd say hang him on a burning cross... but you know, in some cultures that's a bit touchy due to dubious histories...

Aye. Not sure how to prevent rich people maliciously suing folk.

I reckon the first step is to stop the suer from financially gaining by sueing a defendent.

direct, plagaristic, rip-off of William Shakespeare

'The first thing we do, kill all the lawyers'

but the first, last, and only thing you need to know as a practicing lawyer in the US is how to keep the meter ticking on any idiot who lauches some hopeless, pointless law suit. Anyone who instead decides to be the idiot in question is deserving of everything that comes to him.
