Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The Public Library of Law has state records too.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Do you think he didn't do it? Because he's worse than a dick if he beat somebody up.

I don't know. He did/does have a pretty hot temper. But, I can't see him attacking someone. He's not a big guy - not that that has a lot of weight to it - but I can't see him physically hurting someone unless really pushed. And the types of tenants he has can really really push.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Where I learnt that Dr. Baraff will no longer be authorising any pain meds for me. I have a chronic condition and "his" ER doesn't treat those. He's also sending an email telling my migraine specialist to stop sending me there.

WTF? So...you're supposed to see a pain specialist after midnight? How's that supposed to work?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

So...you're supposed to see a pain specialist after midnight? How's that supposed to work?

I wish he'd gone into detail. But pain specialists don't have the resources to treat migraines ad hoc, so that would be little help to me anyway.

As far as I can tell, the ER is the only group sitting on on-demand dilaudid/benadryl/compazine/keterolac, and he's decided he's not sharing. Because my need is chronically on-demand.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Crap. Fraudlent activity on our debit cards. Debit cards are cancelled. No Christmas shopping this weekend.

Dr. Baraff is an asshole. I hope he develops a nasty, painful and chronic condition himself. Of course, he'd probably just write his own scripts and not have any problem getting treatment. Fucker.

Librarian Warlord

The Public Library of Law has state records too.

::adjusts law librarian cap::

That database, and most others, don't have trial court records (charges, transcripts, jury verdicts, etc). They have opinions (only, no briefs, etc.) from appellate courts - these opinions have precedent. Trial court opinions don't set precedent and are only binding for the two litigants involved, and they're not generally published.

eta: PACER does have other filings, like briefs and motions, that when I started in the biz you had to go to the court for -- thus my appreciation.

::takes off cap, goes back to reading the Internets::

ita, I hope the surgery worked, and I hope your doctor rips Dr. Baraff a new asshole. I'd write a letter to the hospital administrator (or ombudsman) and publish it widely, but I'm rude.

Something WAAAAAAAAY up his arse would be good.

Sorry about the debit cards, Cash-- what a shitty thing to have happen right now.

And it's chronic.
