Briefly: Line Dancing for Lawyers, Take 2
By Eric Magnuson and Sandra Badin
August 16, 2022
We have written here before about the importance of not switching line spacing or typeface settings to squeeze more words into a brief - especially after the court has rejected your request for additional pages. See, Eric J. Magnuson, "Briefly: Line Dancing for Lawyers," Minnesota Lawyer (Sept. 15, 2015); Eric J. Magnuson and Rebecca A. Zadaka, "Briefly: In briefs, what a difference a font can make." Minnesota Lawyer (Oct. 26, 2021). Parties doing so may face a variety of sanctions - from having the court give their opponents unsolicited page or word enlargements in subsequent briefing, to having their non-conforming briefs stricken in part or altogether.
The articles on our website include some of the publications and papers authored by our attorneys, both before and after they joined our firm.
