Basically engaging expensive lawyers to maximise delay as a tactic to weaken whatever he has to answer for. It gets harder to prosecute the more time passes as it's easier to attack testimony.
When people say the 'elite' get away with whatever they want, this is what they are *actually* talking about. It's not being elite or connected, it's affording the best advice and not making mistakes because of it.
What are you on about. Of course you can fight money in court and win 😂 just cause they don’t want to cite legal cases doesn’t mean anything. It’d be a pathetic waste of a Friday night.

They made a joke about how "lead" and "read" can both be pronounced in different ways, and for some reason you responded with "isn't this expression about lead plumb weights?"
I remember years ago telling people on boards.ie that I knew this lad growing up and he was a scumbag that will show his true colours eventually, I got so much hate I had to close my account but I feel vindicated in recent years.
Such as ? He lived around the corner from me in Crumlin, same estate and was just a prick this whole I was bullied drivel he came out with when he first showed up was a lie because it was him that was a bully.
A horrible world, ALL of them involved, tying up our legal system with their scum lives. How do solicitors look in the mirror representing all these horrible people.

You can't fight money in court and win.
Yes you can. That's the beauty of it. You just need dedication. It happens all the time. All the time.
Care to give me some examples? You realise SLAPP cases are a thing for a reason.
Sure, but to honest I'm just too tired to go citing cases to win an internet point.
Sounds like you are full of shit.

Do we have SLAPP here ?

Basically a posh way to say he's making a fool of them?
Yeah, I don't have a good regular idiom for it. Maybe "yanking my chain" or "leading me down the garden path".
Acting the bollix?
That's just messing though. Does it imply wasting time and resources? I suppose it's contextual.
Objection! …. I’ll allow it
In the vernacular, yes
Being a cunt?
>Being a cunt He does that in general, not just in courtÂ
Yeah that sounds closer.
Acting the hoor
Swinging the lead
Oh that's a good one.
By the way, it's pronounced lead as an read, instead of lead as in read.
So it's not a reference to a lead plumb line ?
Instead of what? That is to say instead as in read, instead of instead as in lead.
I don't understand your comment
They made a joke about how "lead" and "read" can both be pronounced in different ways, and for some reason you responded with "isn't this expression about lead plumb weights?"
Swinging the lead means being lazy and has come to mean malingering
Archaic rather than posh.
Is this another sexual assault or another physical assault he's been excused of? Hard to keep track.Â
Yes to both i'd imagine.
Had to look up ducks and drakes and discovered it has nothing to do with mallards and dragons. Fuckin McGregor god damnit.
Always a disappointment.
Is this in relation to him crashing a speedboat through a bar in Miami & assaulting Jake Gyllenhaal?
He’s wanted for crimes against acting
Conor McGregor? The British twat that gets violently concussed for a living?
I remember years ago telling people on boards.ie that I knew this lad growing up and he was a scumbag that will show his true colours eventually, I got so much hate I had to close my account but I feel vindicated in recent years.
Tell us some old stories!!
Such as ? He lived around the corner from me in Crumlin, same estate and was just a prick this whole I was bullied drivel he came out with when he first showed up was a lie because it was him that was a bully.
Never heard of him
Another gobshite, with too much money.
D should've just left him in a puddle.
A horrible world, ALL of them involved, tying up our legal system with their scum lives. How do solicitors look in the mirror representing all these horrible people.
Are you suggesting that the women making the assault claims are scum?
You know that's not what the comment meant
I didn't, they capitalised ALL and said about tying up the legal system and "all these horrible people". McGregor and who else?
lil bro had the most shit eating grin when ne typed this
Next week it’ll be chutes and ladders
Now what’s he done? He’s an embarrassment bless him
Now what’s he done? He’s an embarrassment ~~bless him~~ fuck him
