Pick the fake conversation snippet we have had with a judge at one of these shindigs over the years:
1) "...and the governor called and said if I put my name in he would chose me for the Third DCA, but I really like trying cases..."
2) "...and it's a lot of money and I can write my own ticket at Greenberg but the kids are out of college and I'd prefer to not take on a full case load and all the stress of private practice..."
3) "...and I told the prosecutor to call Kathy Rundle and have her report to my court immediately but instead they nolle prossed the case..."
4) "... and not only did the jury find my client not guilty, but they wrote a note to the judge that I was the best lawyer they had ever seen. And that was only in my second year of practice. Then when I tried my first federal case..."
5) "...and I tried thirty cases in my first two years at the SAO, and won twenty-nine of them, and then tried another forty in the next three years and won them all..."
6) "...so then after issuing the order I got a very nice handwritten note from a justice on the Florida Supreme Court saying it was the best order he had ever seen and that I should definitely put my name in to be an appellate judge..."
7) "...but I wouldn't hear of it, so I paid for dinner..."
See you in court, but not at Lolita whatever, because we really don't associate with hoi-polloi if we can help it.
#7 is the fake one.

No, I don't want to go to your bar mitzvah. I have other plans.
Why isn't this taking place at Prime 112?
The food is atrocious. The drinks watered down and expensive. Fridays on ocean drive is much better. Those fried zucchini...:
You know where they should be having this party. Just saying..: I mean who else is serving wild caught unagi sashimi and fresh flash fried Florida lobster lime bites??
Fat Sals in Hollywood, California serves a steak hoagie with fries and mozzarella sticks in the sandwich. The real deal in a fake city.
Come on. Not just mozzarella sticks. But those breaded and fried mozzarella sticks so when they are in the sandwich they are hot and oozing cheese.
Oh my. After a big night of partying with the Hollywood hotties who were always impressed by the robe badge and gavel we would always hit up Fat Sals. Those were the days.
"Was she really beautiful? Was she at least what they call attractive? She was exasperation, she was torture."
Her angel's face, As the great eye of heaven shined bright, And made a sunshine in the shady place.
Will you be there Rumpole? Captain? Professor?

Power is such a tedious bore...
Im not even in FACDL but I know the young lawyers who organized this are really working hard to make it a success, in the hopes that we can have... you know... an actual feeling of community.
Anon commenters bitching about its location should stfu
Has anyone noticed that some Judges will be on thier cellphones during trial? what do you all think of that?
You know, I read somewhere that muses are meant to be adored and indulged. Even when they make very, very particular requests...
Why is ecru still a color for gosh sakes? I mean really who do I have to speak to?
Bring any check from tonight's silly event to you know where- a venue- for half off your entire bill, up to 24 people. Eat, drink, order anything. Present a check from today from Lolita and voila- 1/2 off. Come taste real food and superior drinks, and you decide.
If he thinks you're really big shit, he'll even compliment your lawyers' great lawyering, no matter how illiterate they are or how egregious and abhorrent their behavior has been.
Hey 1:27 PM, have you noticed that most attorneys will be on their cellphones during trial? What do you think of that?
Ok, I don;t think I need to stay here anymore and watch several members of the judiciary do the electric slide.
After a couple drinks, ask him to tell you about his theory of the "singular conspirator". It's this whole crazy new math/physics thing, involving the space-time continuum. Will fucking blow your mind.
7:46 p.m., conspiracy convictions with one conspirator or less are routine in federal court under the constructive conspiracy doctrine.
Not when all co-conspirators have been acquitted by way of judgment of acquittal and the court finds there was no conspiracy.
