Crazy. Glad you're OK, Jim.

Sounds like you picked a bad day to stop drinking......sorry to hear about your experience and for your client.

I don't know about the security at other courthouses but locally, you'll have to pass through a metal detector before entering. I think the screening people that operate the equipment are former TSA employes but I guess a little security is better than nothing.

Something is not quite right about this story.

Holy Cow! Yes, new line of work. Do wills and real estate. Glad you're OK.

After someone ran a stop sign into me at 60mph, and I was off work for 5 months learing how to walk again. One of the first trips I made while I was still off work was to go get a really nice replacement 944, on a 14 hour round trip drive.

Get back up on that horse and go back to work, i'm sure the courthouse security will be tightened accordingly.

Not likely to get paid by that client. That sucks.

Actually I don't mean to be cavalier about this...I suspect Jim is a bit shaken (as I would be), and lawyer "jokes" aside, he might have lost someone he actually cared about too.

Yea, I can't help but see possible humor in almost any situation. My brain is warped.
