We should be in trial right now.  We planned on it for over a year.  Had every single witness lined up.  And woosh we are kicked to the curb.  New start date in June.

So what.  Just a few more months.  What's the big deal.

Experts are the big deal.  Doctors in particular. We have to pre-pay them to come to court. Their time is precious.  They are unhappy.  Sometimes they are more than unhappy.  Not only do we end up having to pay for their time NOT to come, we have the nightmare of rescheduling them.  Or rather in my case, John and Anne have the nightmare.

In this transcript, the gracious trial judge is hearing the tale of the doctor who had a cow.
