You just said we were all CLUELESS. Your entire thread was basically an attempt at a crass attack on everyone who doesn't see things your way - as most of your threads seem to be (oh, those horrible "libbies"!). Don't dish it out if you can't take it, bucko.

betamanlet, if it really is important to you to prove you have mad lawyer skillz, shouldn't you challenge another lawyer?

'Cause I have to tell you, I cannot find the synonym for "pathetic" that is strong enough to apply to this sorry display of needy whining.

Actually, the Seventh Amendment is taught in Civil Procedure, not Con Law.


Carry on.

Since you're all apparently con law scholars, you must clearly understand what this amendment means. When are you entitled to a civil jury?

I mean, clearly the meaning of this is plain, right?
Yes. Is there a situation you have in mind that suggests otherwise?
