## Duck law
U.S. v. Faiella, 39 F. Supp. 3d 544 (SDNY 2014)
SEC v. Shavers, 2013 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 110018 (E.D. Tx)
U.S. v. Budovsky, 2015 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 127717 (SDNY 2015)

## new matter script
A time-consuming but necessary task in law-firm management is creating new file folders and standard forms (that can be modified) when a new matter is opened. I wanted to find a way to do this faster.  This bash script works nicely.  Rather than create multipe folders using the Mac user interface, and then copying a template into a new folder, thiscreates all of the new folders in one step and also copies a template (or multiple templates) into a new file and new folders for the new matter.  Rocket science?  No.  Useful time-saver?  Works for me.

mkdir -p path_to/client_files/newclient/{correspondence,bills,pleadings,documents,misc} && cat path_to/client_files/Forms/eng_letter.doc > path_to/client_files/newclient/engagement_letter

This creates the following directory structure:

newclient [directory]
  - correspondence [sub-directory]
  - bills [sub-directory]
  - pleadings [sub-directory]

## opp_indemnity.feature
# This is an imperfect paraphrase of a small part of a very long insurance policy
Feature: OPPI Indemnity Obligation

Scenario:  Payment of Premium
Given an insured has paid the premium
When the insured has truthfully completed the Application
Then the Insurer agrees to the contents of the Policy form

Scenario:  Coverage A Claims
Given the Named Insured has suffered Damages

## duty_to_defend.feature
Given I am an insured under a CG 00 01 10 01 ISO policy form # insured is a defined term
     When I am sued by a third party # someone other than the insured
     When I have satisfied required policy conditions
     Then the insurance policy should pay for lawyers to defend me
          If the suit alleges that I am legally liable for "property damage" # physical injury to tangible property, etc ...
          Or if the suit alleges that I am legally liable for "bodily injury" # also a defined term ...
     When the suit contains allegations to which the insurance applies
     And if none of the policy's exclusions apply

# Note -- Does not cover personal/advertising injury or medpay coverage.
