Would not trust a stay at home husband. I have no need or patience for a man that doesn’t work. What normally happens is that the type A boss girl married to the stay at home husband ends up frustrated with the bum. Then wife will be paying hefty alimony to get rid of the dead weight. IMHO it is a losing proposition.

“doesn’t work.” Dude, what the hell. Way to discount the contribution of spouses who don’t work outside the home.

Get real. When you need a divorce you will be begging a divorce lawyer to minimize any exposure you will have for spousal support to your spouse who doesn’t work outside the home.

My husband stayed home – it worked very well for us, but I think both spouses/partners need to be fully onboard to make it work. Advantages – he drove the kids to and from school, handled doctor appointments and other obligations, he took care of the house and cars and ran all of the errands, my schedule was free for all kinds of work and community obligations. His identity did not center around his career and he loved being home with the kids when they were younger. I would have lost my mind.

Disadvantages – now that the kids are older, he’s not really in a position to re-enter the job market, but we’re also fine financially so there’s no need for him to do so. It’s nice to have him totally free for vacations. Extra income would have been nice, but we did fine without it. I structured our retirement so he’s covered if anything happens to me.

My mom didn’t work when we were younger and re-entered the workforce when the youngest were in high school. It was soooooo good for her to go back to work. Stay at home parents generally should return to work for their own well being and development. My spouse stays at home and its almost time for them to return to work.

So I had a first yesterday– received a Reply Brief that has cases that do not exist. ChatGPT apparently strikes again. Would you file a Surreply? Would you ask opposing counsel to withdraw the Reply without further comment? How would you handle it?

They should be reported to the OBC. IMHO, you are obligated by the NRPC to report this behavior.

Chat GPT–If you report it to OBC they will seek to disbar the person. The current OBC is hammer looking for a nail. Just inform opposing counsel that the brief has errors and ask them to withdraw it. Obviously, a paralegal or staff person wrote the brief and not an attorney.

If you genuinely believe what you write, you have a very narrow or non-existent understanding of the American Bar Association’s Standards for Imposing Lawyer Sanctions. Your comments are a disservice to the 1% of readers foolish enough to believe you.

Unfortunately and much to my chagrin, rule 11 only applies to “pleadings” not other filings.

You’re right. My bad. I can’t believe I had this wrong. Thank you, because of you I went back and re-read the rule. I have no idea why I thought this for so long.

Happened to me a few weeks ago. I called counsel. The cases were real, but had absolutely nothing to do with the matters they were cited for. Like completely different areas of the law etc. He apologized profusely, thanked me for letting him know, and withdrew the motion. About a decade ago I screwed up and missed a filing deadline. Instant malpractice claim. Called opposing counsel, he said don’t sweat it, withdrew his motion to strike, etc. I’ve never gotten to repay the favor to him, so I guess I just feel like paying it forward. We all screw up. If we can give each other some grace without harming our clients, why not do so?
