Multi-district litigation is painful, when your client is sued across the country. It becomes excrutiating when you client also decides to take the high road, by trying the cases one by one instead of settling them all at once. The determination is admirable, but carrying it out is cruel.
There are not many professions like litigation, where other people build up their careers by discrediting yours; where someone makes a living by constantly undoing what you have done. Well, save for politicians of course. As you might have guessed from my frequent whining blogs lately, we are working on a very tough case against an opposing counsel who eats us for breakfast, ... lunch and dinner. God bless his stomach.
I brushed up my old copy of The Godfather tonight. Doesn't the Corleone family keep their own lawyers and judges? If the Godfather were to offer me a job now, I probably wouldn't mind taking it.

你太宽容了:) 这篇哪能算“文”啊,实在是前天晚上太 miserable, 不发泄一下睡不着觉。我觉得是默克的那位给他们做了一个坏榜样。都想 set a record, 都想当CEO. 自古成功都是不能复制的。就比如 Johnson & Johnson, 也对着默克有样学样,一个案子一个案子的打,结果洛杉矶一个Trial 就输了417 million! I believe they fired their trial counsel after that trial. 这都到哪儿说理去?
I will stop whining and start writing fun stuff :)

"....just to make me look ridiculous. And a man in my position can't afford to be made to look ridiculous!"
"Thank you for the dinner, .... Mr. Corleone is a man who insists on hearing bad news immediately."
hahaha. If I won the lottery, the first thing I would do is to hire you .....
