Attorneys Need Not Apply: You Have the Right to Remain Silent

ONLY SIX PERCENT OF ATTORNEYS ARE SUCCESSFUL AT BEING GRANTED CERTIORARI AT THE SUPREME COURT. DO YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES?

On December 3, 2021, reply briefs are due from the County of Arlington and the Virginia State Attorney General in the first and longest surviving litigation against the facial coverings mandates, the only "masking" mandate case to reach the highest court in the land, and without the participation or assistance of even one attorney. State Attorney General Mark Herring, who had issued a press release in August 2020 was so afraid of this litigation against Virginia Governor Ralph Northam's COVID-19 response that he chose to mention only the fifteen litigations brought by law firms he had easily defeated, and in neither the U.S. District Court in Richmond, nor the Fourth Circuit, did he ever formally enter an appearance or present a legal argument in the case, but now, after over a year, he has to think about what he plans to say to the conservative majority at the U.S. Supreme Court to explain conduct that conforms to a prima facie case of conspiracy to violate civil rights and evasion of service of a summons, two felonies alone that have a maximum sentence combined of 30 years in federal prison.

So, having come this far by faith, literally, and having developed a case under the Free Exercise Clause, if you are a law student, a paralegal or just somebody just seriously interested in the law, this is your one an only chance in a once in a lifetime pandemic to assist in the preparation of oral argument before the United States Supreme Court, an honor that even most attorneys never attain.

Fortune favors the bold in battle; so, be bold, we Rangers like to say.
