Fun and Games at SCOTUS

Those crazy clerks at SCOTUS (Supreme Court of the United States) are at it again. As I noted in my last blog in this category, on March 22, 2010, SCOTUS suspended me from practice before them and directed that a Rule to Show Cause should issue requiring me to reply within 40 days why I shouldn't be disbarred from SCOTUS.

Yet day after day passed and I never received the actual Rule to Show Cause so I didn't know what the basis of my proposed diabarrment would be and thus couldn't prepare my response.

Yesterday, I finally received the Rule to Show Cause and it contained a minor suprise . . .

The Rule to Show Cause required that I respond within 40 days from March 22, 2010. Yet the envelope in which it was mailed was not postmarked until April 2, 2010, and I did not receive it until yesterday thereby costing me 13 days of preparation time. Clearly, someone at the Supreme Court is using dirty tricks to make my life more difficult.
