Mike, I don’t think Bubba is the name of a guy who goes to wine and cheese parties.

Sounds as though they are placing blame on the wrong party. To reluctantly sign a “contract” makes it sound as though these parents let their daughter address them by their first names. Are your children your “friends” or are they your “children”? I think the after effects of wine and brie cheese are at work here.

“This one has R. 11 written all over it.”

Good luck with that.

Rule 11 only applies when judges decide to apply it… which is to say, essentially never.

But yeah, this case is quite ridiculous.

Let me get this straight.

Bubba and Betty are suing because of a marriage *to which they consented*?

Does the word “consent” have any meaning at all?

This one has R. 11 written all over it.

…and “have said they reluctantly signed a consent form allowing their daughter to marry her coach”.

Given the degree of their own moral and legal culpability, may we safely assume they are also suing themselves? Or were their own pockets not deep enough to mend their wounds?
