Law Students

Barzam WTFs of the week

Dear sketchy people who witness car accidents: If you plan to be unavailable for trial, please stop making excited utterances to one witness and statements inconsistent with your excited utterances to other witnesses. Because apparently you can get impeached even if you never took the stand.

Dear crazy old berks: Please stop revoking second or third wills expecting the that the revocation will resurrect the first will you wrote because I hate writing about the doctrine of dependent relative revocation. You clearly know how to write an execute a valid will -- just pony up the lawyers fees again. While you're at it, stop adding handwritten codicils and setting your precious stamp collections on fire.

Dear abused wives: Please stop secretly buying real estate and giving title to your girl friend Blanche so your husband doesn't find out. Because he will, and he'll want title, and invariably Blanche is gonna claim its was a gift and purchase money resulting trusts don't exist in my state.
