    a lawsuit filed by Mr. Perrone on behalf of an inmate who had accused jail officials in Clinton County, Mich., of being “deliberately indifferent” to her when she started vomiting last year.

    In a brief order issued on Monday, Judge Kent noted that “each page of plaintiff’s complaint appears on an e-filing which is dominated by a large multicolored cartoon dragon dressed in a suit, presumably because she is represented by the law firm of ‘Dragon Lawyers PC © Award Winning Lawyers.’” “Use of this dragon cartoon logo is not only distracting, it is juvenile and impertinent,” Judge Kent wrote. “The Court is not a cartoon.”

      So dragon lawyers are suing county jail for something serious (denying medical access), but the judges threw out the lawsuit because they are triggered by dragon logo?

    • “The Court is not a cartoon.”

      says the adult in a silky flowing robe who sits in the highest big boy chair behind the tallest, closed desk facing an audience and using a noise maker to command attention.

      the absurd theatricality of a courtroom is matched only by the refusal of its cast members to acknowledge it’s absurdity.
