BATFE Gun-Smuggling Brochure Resurfaces
According to The Arizona Republic state newspaper. The brochure issued by BATFE confirms that the agency was aware its actions were strictly illegal, but does not directly implicate Holder or Obama. Holder’s testimony to Congress was replete with contradictions and statements that did not stand up to scrutiny, hence the ongoing investigation.
In other news, it was learned last week that a county attorney within Arizona may be planning a separate action with regard to the illegal smuggling operation, but details will not be released until the plans are settled. After prodding, it was not clear if the state taxing authority would look into tax violations for one of the straw buyers, who spent six-figure money on guns he could not legally buy, with no visible means of support, and hence no paid taxes.
Evidence is almost insurmountable that Eric Holder and Mr. Obama knew in advance about Fast and Furious, let the program run, and used the bogus stats to bolster a case against private gun ownership and for government registration of firearms.
"Book Review: Dictionary of Legal Abbreviations Used in American ...
Abstract
This reference tool, which is basically an alphabetical list of abbreviations with citations of the works to which they refer, represents a valuable addition to the research apparatus of American law. Although not an original conception, it is more comprehensive in scope than its predecessors, and is probably the most useful effort of its kind. For the ingenuity, perseverance, and painstaking labor that went into this work, its compiler deserves the recognition and thanks of the legal profession and all who research American law.
Law Students Not Only Ones To Loath The Bluebook - IPLJ
Judge Posner hates it too, apparently.
He recently relayed his disgust for The Bluebook in a 12 page Yale Law Review article . Truly a recommended read of a judge’s opinion that anyone in this field could agree with.
This article echoes his 1986 article, about which Judge Posner writes, “[m]any years ago I wrote a review of The Bluebook, then in its sixteenth edition. My review was naively entitled ‘Goodbye to the Bluebook.’ The Bluebook was then a grotesque 255 pages long. It is now in its nineteenth edition—which is 511 pages long.”
Grotesque indeed.
Judge Posner then questions the single system of legal citation by pointing out the absurd abbreviation rules:
“Efforts to impose uniformity beyond the basic conventions encounter rapidly diminishing returns well illustrated by The Bluebook’s obsession with abbreviations. An example that I have picked literally at random is ‘C.Ag.’ What does ‘C.Ag.’ stand for? Why, of course, the Codigo de Aguas of Brazil. Now suppose one had occasion to cite the Codigo de Aguas. Why would one want to abbreviate it? The abbreviation would be meaningless to someone who was not a Brazilian lawyer, and perhaps to Brazilian lawyers as well (but do they abbreviate Codigo de Aguas ‘C.Ag’?). The basic rule of abbreviating, ignored by the authors of The Bluebook, is to avoid nonobvious abbreviations: don’t make the reader puzzle over an abbreviation, as The Bluebook does routinely. Consider ‘Temp. Envtl. L. & Tech. J.,’ ‘ILSA J. Int’l & Comp. L.,’ ‘Emp. Rts. & Emp. Pol’y J.,’ and ‘AIPLA Q.J.’ These are names of journals. Now try figuring out “B.T.A.M. (P-H),” “A. Ct. Crim. App.,” ‘A.F. Ct. Crim. App.,’ ‘C.G. Ct. Crim. App.,’ ‘N-M Ct. Crim. App.,’ ‘Ne. Reg’l Parole Comm’n,’ and ‘Cent. Ill. Pub. Serv. Co.’
