For reasons that will soon be obvious, I'm doing this post in Arial font.
Hat tip to Eric Goldman, who carries a story about a hearing examiner whose Facebook rants about registered sex offenders (and about using the Arial font) led to a re-hearing for an offender. Excerpt of the rants:
a. “it’s always awkward when I see one of my pervs in the parking lot after a hearing”;
b. he (the hearing examiner) “likes taking motions under advisement, but gets greater satisfaction denying them”;
f. he “can’t trust someone who drafts a letter in arial font!”;
g. he “thinks attorneys should know that arial font is not appropriate for motions” followed up with “I might be biased. I think arial is inappropriate for most things”;
i. he “had to lay some smack down on some crazy attorney!!”;
k. The entry above was followed by: he “just sat through a 2.5 hour direct examination! Hearings generally last an hour”;
l. he “is off to jail for the day! Let’s hope he doesn’t get shanked”;
