My office was subpoenaed by some defendant as a third party to provide records we can't legally produce. I file a motion to quash that explains exactly what we need in order to produce the records - an order of the court . Nothing happens in the case for three weeks. I call the JA up, she, with not an ounce of courtesy or warmth, says I need to file it again, along with a proposed order. I'm fine with a party to the case having to do the judge's job for him and write a proposed order.
But a third-party? I know nothing about the case. As a state lawyer, I'm paid a salary, a shitty one at that, and already work from 7-6 most days (less SF time of course
). In fact, I only responded as a courtesy. I could've just sat on the case and waited for the defendant to file a motion to make the court order us to produce the records. I'll do that in the future.

Dude, you're really pulling this card? You get rich off making people jump through hoops.
But carry on white knight, I'd hate to keep you from defending child molesters and rapists.
