I thought you said you used to do this? It sounds like you do it every bloody day for 22 hrs/day.

I used to do this. Now I pay people to do it and, on occasion, speak about it. Unfortunately, I have to tell the people I pay to do it how to do it. Well, not so much "tell" as yell my freakin' head off.

Blogster, how about a little PACER update?

Had a 1969 Pacer. Cool car.

My mother graduated high school in 1969.

Did the cars have electricity back then?

Only if we flew a kite with a key out the back.

Amusing note of the day, Vodicka filed a letter with his schedule for the next six weeks for purposes of scheduling hearings in the bankruptcy case. He is surprisingly unavailable the next few weeks. The days he is available are the well-known regularly scheduled docket dates, which can't be moved by the court without serious effort.

Edit: In other words, he is trying to stall any emergency hearing request by SMU.

Maybe W should make a call and request nicely some of that serious effort to be made.

All bankruptcy matters were transferred to Judge Hale yesterday. Hale heard the last bankruptcy case.

Does that mean Vodicka is going to request a change in judge? I bet Hale is as tired of Vodicka as we all are.

So this is good news, correct?

I don't see how. If lawyers can change judges just because the judge hates them or they once got a bad ruling, nothing would ever get done. Plus the idea that Hale would be anything less than fair is laughable.

Has the Motion for Remand been filed yet? I think Blogster you were going with the 3 day under.

Yes, it was filed Monday. That means if you took the under, you won. Congratulations.

Hearing set for the 5th at 9AM.

Let the legal bloodletting continue with yet another chapter in the saga....
I presume, Blog, that you will keep us updated with the results of today's events.

I will be getting the results second hand, I am afraid. Though, I can tell you ahead of time what they will be. THis will be in state court by the end of the day.

What's his next delay tactic? Can't you appeal a bankruptcy judge's decision to remand to the district judge?

Vodicka has always had the same problem with appeals whether in BK court or state court. If he is gets an unfavorable decision, he can appeal, but the order is in effect while the appeal is pending. He can ask for a stay pending the appeal, but that is at the discretion of the judge who issued the original ruling. SMU can ask for a bond as a condition of the stay. Vodicka won't be able to afford the bond.

And that has always been the problem with the MSJ he keeps putting off in state court. He can appeal if he loses, but he can't keep the order from going into effect. As soon as the order is effective, SMU mows the place down and his leverage is destroyed and some of his issues on appeal are moot.
