He actually used a catch line from the episode where Otis sues the County. He was making an accusation against the county and said "This is obviously gross negligence on the part of the Sheriff's Department." I laughed out loud when I read it. But, I couldn't help but think "Hey- I'm Neil Bentley - that is supposed to be my line!!!" Brad "Neil Bentley" Cunningham "My card, in case you ever need my services...." Brad/Neil -? I saw your post and had to comment.? I am a civil attorney, and I make it standard practice and procedure?to incorporate at least one Mayberry reference in every Motion, Opposition or Reply Brief that I file.? I don't go out of my way to emphasize them,?I do it for my own grins and giggles.? Those of us that are true Mayberrites know there are an abundance of quips, quotes and observations just begging to be used in legal argument.? "Nip it in the bud" is so obviously easy to use.....?(and Great for motion practice associated with temporary restraining orders/preliminary injunctions).??As a matter of fact - I also employ your catchphrase when I circulate my business card..... I learned today that I will be filing two briefs with the Nevada Supreme Court in the coming month.? The issues to be addressed are finer points of Constitutional law and Federal/State administrative law in case 1?and liabilities of joint tortfeasors and successors in interest?in a real estate transaction gone horribly wrong in case 2.? I am already considering?quotes to incorporate into the briefs? - and I haven't even?started drafting it yet.? Anyone have any suggestions?? The more the better......
