Today I had to ask for a hearing to be delayed for 2 weeks because opposing counsel hadn't sent us some necessary files. For a split second I thought about being self-righteous about it before the judge, but of course I decided not to. That's not a good look.

And a good thing, too. Turns out opposing counsel DID send the files a month ago, & our office somehow missed it. Oops!

A good reminder not to be a jerk about opposing counsels' errors, lest you find out the errors are actually your own.

@jbe Can confirm. I've been on both sides of that and the crow I had to eat when I was originally uppity was brutal, but well-deserved.
