Jack Thompson's Fate... Ruling Delayed?

Avalith | April 16, 2008 | News | Misc 
Although Jack Thompson's bar trial is over, we don't have a reason to bust out the beer, Jagermeister, or whatever else yet and have a huge party because he's been disbarred. The ruling was expected this month, but the judge presiding over the case has asked the Florida Supreme Court for more time in which to come to a decision.

That's all fine and good, but when you have such fine examples of... er... professional behavior such as killing a fax machine, arguing with a judge over an objection, and asking about C.U.N.T.F.L.A.P.S., which, presumably he pronounced instead of spelled out, is there really a reason to take more time to come to the conclusion he should be disbarred?

    I do not see why the judge is hesitating over the decision as in all stright forward honesty everyone knows he should be barred.

    Don't you see what they're doing, they are buying time to side with JT.

    There's no reason why he shouldn't already be disbarred, this is the proof how idiotic the courts are.

    So JT will live on as the Lawyer it seems.

      Yes, they're really idiotic for sanctioning Jack Thompson and for allowing him to be put on trial for his license. They're totally siding with Thompson, even after Alabama removed his pro hac vice!

      Excellent deduction, Final Blade. Excellent deduction.
