From Magistrate Judge Ray Kent's Order Striking Complaint today in Doe No. 2 v. Clinton County (W.D. Mich.):

Each page of plaintiff's complaint appears on an e-filing which is dominated by a large multi-colored cartoon dragon dressed in a suit, presumably because she is represented by the law firm of "Dragon Lawyers PC © Award Winning Lawyers". See Compl. (ECF No. 1). Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(f)(1) allows a court to "strike from a pleading an insufficient defense or any redundant, immaterial, impertinent, or scandalous matter." Use of this dragon cartoon logo is not only distracting, it is juvenile and impertinent. The Court is not a cartoon. Accordingly,

IT IS ORDERED that plaintiff's complaint (ECF No. 1) is STRICKEN. Plaintiff is directed to file an amended complaint, containing the same allegations as the original complaint, without the cartoon dragon by no later than May 5, 2025.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that plaintiff shall not file any other documents with the cartoon dragon or other inappropriate content.

This is A&N, please spoonfeed us the backstory about the case so we can decide whether it's based or cringe, beyond the obvious furry lolyer antics. Thank you.
 
Did they seriously think the judge was going to be amused or intimidated by this? There's a time and a place to do stuff and in a legal proceeding is not one of them.
 
Yet another cool idea with terrible execution. I'm so sick of law firms having boring names and when I think of dragons I'm like "hell yeah, that's bad ass" but the dragon is just a furry, or scalie or whatever the fuck, lawyer. I don't want a lawyer who is a dragon, I want a lawyer who is like a dragon in the sense of dragons being some allegory for power and ferocity. The icon sucks. If I had to make a law firm with dragon shit I'd do it like heraldry. Make it medieval looking and symbolic and respectable, not something that looks like it's straight out of furry porn.

A manic episode would explain a lot…
He should not be practicing if he is mentally unwell, or rather so unwell that it affects his work. Sadly it seems he runs his own practice so he doesn't answer to anyone but himself.
Still somehow more competent than a certain small law firm from central Minnesota.
Idk man, I'd take degenerate druggies over furries anyday of the week.
 
I dunno why but this popped into my head:

(I thought about archiving this so people would not have to log in but I do not feel like shitting up the server with the double dragon into)
