How to Effectively Read a Case: A Poem


OK

I’ve got to read this case

We’re going to talk about it in class tomorrow

So I’ve got to get it done today

Alright, here I go

“Justice Field delivered the opinion…”

Field

that’s a good solid judge name

If I were a judge, I would want that to be my name

No, wait

My last name would be Judge

That way when I meet people I would say

“Hi, my name’s Judge, guess what I do for a living?”

And people would just get a kick out of it

Then of course if I wasn’t a real judge it would just be awkward

I would say, “Hi, I’m Judge”

and they would say in a joking manner,

“Wow you’re name’s Judge, don’t tell me you’re a real Judge!”

and I would say, “No, I’m actually an insurance broker.”

And then there would be an awkward silence.

Ok, focus,

Back to the case

“The plaintiff alleges his insurer, Hawaii State Physicians…”

Hawaii

Remember Hawaiian Punch?

That was a good drink

It was like a sugary version of Kool-aid

It had that small little pasty guy with the crazy red hair and the Hawaiian shirt as the logo

I’ve always wondered,

If he lived in a tropical place like Hawaii,

Why was he so pasty?

Considering the amount of sun they get over there

I would imagine everyone’s pretty tan out there

Maybe he’s a recluse

Yeah

He lives in Hawaii but has agoraphobia,

So he stays inside most of the time

But in order to compensate for his inability to enjoy the tropical scenery

His family tries to bring “Hawaii” to him

And they bring him a Hawaiian shirt, set a fake palm tree in his house…

They get him some fruit punch to boot

Then he becomes so touched by the sentiment he decides to share a little piece of Hawaii

All over the world,

For people who will probably never get to go

And thus the birth of Hawaiian Punch

That’s pretty inspirational

No, it probably didn’t happen like that though

Probably a soft drink corporation came up with it

Distributed it all over the country

But still… Read the full story
