Patrick A. Peters (“Pap”) and his twin bother Prescott U. Peters (“Pup”), the fearless tort lawyers whose zany exploits delighted readers of Tort$ “R” Us and Please Pass The Tort$, return with yet another round of legal mayhem guaranteed to make you laugh until you cry. Their latest antics include a lawsuit on behalf of consumers who bought what turned out to be worthless crypto currency from the now-bankrupt FUX; lawsuits challenging the labeling of Godiva Belgian Chocolates and a Vermont company’s ice cream purportedly made from the milk of “happy cows”; and yet another lawsuit on behalf of the unforgettable Lydia Lowlace, who’s image from Playboy is now part of a collection of non-fungible tokens sold by an off-shore start-up. Settle into your favorite chair so that you don’t fall on the floor laughing at the new exploits of these lovable lawyers who leave no stone unturned in their quest for fun, fame and fortune. “If the Marx Brothers were lawyers they’d perform just like Pap and Pup in T. C. Morrison’s last novel, Please Pass The Tort$. Fasten your seatbelt for one hell of a ride.” —David M. Conte, Retired Broadway Manager

Patrick A. Peters (“Pap”) and his twin brother Prescott U. Peters (“Pup”) are lawyers with a distinctive eye for opportunity. Pap convinces Pup who is a good lawyer despite having gone to Yale Law School that they should leave their respective big-firm practices in New York City to start up a hopefully lucrative practice as plaintiffs' class action lawyers. The brothers meet a variety of clients, judges, and lawyers as they embark on a resourceful and unique approach to lawyer-client relationships all inspired by actual court cases. Written with humor and parlance that only comes from a depth of legal experience, Morrison captures the trials and tribulations of human behavior that strike a chord with every reader. “The first thing we do, let’s pay all the lawyers.” —William Shakespeare “Ask not what your lawyer can do for you but rather what you can do for your lawyer.” — John F. Kennedy “What’s wrong with cake?” —Marie Antoinette “To put it bluntly, our services are designed to bring fear, terror and the threat of bankruptcy to all who come in contact with them.” —Patrick A. Peters III, Partner “P.S. We noticed that your client’s most recent 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission appears to have substantially overstated the company’s third quarter earnings. In an era where virtually every corporate misstep leads to a class action lawsuit, this misstatement could prove troublesome.” A graduate of Otterbein University (Ohio) and New York University Law School, T. C. Morrison spent his 50-year legal career writing briefs and trying cases around the country for a series of New York City law firms.

Patrick A. Peters (“Pap”) and Prescott U. Peters (“Pup”), the intrepid tort lawyers whose zany exploits delighted readers of Torts R Us, return with another round of legal shenanigans guaranteed to make you laugh until you cry. Their latest antics include a lawsuit against the Russian government for entrapping a well-known Congressman in a honey trap, attempting to liberate all the chimpanzees in the Bronx Zoo, and representing the unforgettable Lydia Lowlace in lawsuits against unscrupulous strip club owners and video game makers who have taken advantage of her sudden fame. The brothers even concoct a plan to revitalize Connecticut’s three poorest cities by turning them into a mecca for nationwide tort lawsuits. Settle into your favorite chair to make sure you don’t fall on the floor laughing at the latest exploits of these lovable lawyers who will stop at nothing in their pursuit of publicity, fame, fun and money. Critics Lavish Praise on PLEASE PASS THE TORTS “Coming on the heels of the hilarious, laugh-out-loud farce TORTS R US, its sequel PLEASE PASS THE TORTS firmly establishes Morrison as the finest writer of humorous fiction since Chaucer. I haven’t laughed so hard since that lady on my show said she thought it was General Lee who was buried in Grant’s Tomb.” - Graucho Marx “Having laughed my way though PLEASE PASS THE TORTS, I can only ask: Where was Peters and Peters when I needed them during the Cold War? Their solution to Russian spying and dirty tricks is truly awe inspiring. The CIA could have saved tons of money and endless lives if we had just called on the Peters Brothers to solve our problem with the Russkies. – Allen Dulles “PLEASE PASS THE TORTS is a worthy successor to Morrison’s earlier work, TORTS R US. That book had me laughing hysterically from the first page to the last. It is by far the wittiest work in the English language since I wrote The Importance of Being Earnest.” - Oscar Wilde “Having laughed my way through TORTS R US and now PLEASE PASS THE TORTS, I can only say that Morrison’s outrageous humor shines through on every page. I especially enjoyed the sexual escapades of his characters. It made me nostalgic for my days in the White House.” - Warren G. Harding

In Law and Class in America, a group of leading legal scholars reflect on the state of the law from the end of the Cold War to the present, grappling with a central question posed to them by Paul D. Carrington and Trina Jones: have recent legal reforms exacerbated class differences in America? In a substantive introduction, Carrington and Jones assert that legal changes from the late-20th century onward have been increasingly elitist and unconcerned with the lives of poor people having little access to the legal system. Contributors use this position as a springboard to review developments in their own particular fields and to assess whether or not legal decisions and processes have contributed to a widening gap between privileged and unprivileged people in this country. From antitrust and bankruptcy to tax and election law, the essays in this unique volume invite readers to reflect thoughtfully on socio-economic justice in the new century, and suggest that a lack of progressive reform in all areas of law may herald a form of undiagnosed class dominance reminiscent of America's Gilded Age. Contributors: Margaret A. Berger, M. Gregg Bloche, David L. Callies, Paul D. Carrington, Paul Y. K. Castle, Lance Compa, James D. Cox, Paula A. Franzese, Marc Galanter, Julius G. Getman, Lawrence O. Gostin, Joel F. Handler, Trina Jones, Thomas E. Kauper, Sanford Levinson, John Linehan, Joseph D. McNamara, Burt Neuborne, Jeffrey O'Connell, Judith Resnik, Richard L. Schmalbeck, Danielle Sarah Seiden, Richard E. Speidel, Gerald Torres, David M. Trubek, Elizabeth Warren, and Lawrence A. Zelenak.

This title was first published in 2001. Legal systems are posited on the assumption that people are rational intentional agents who can choose to follow or break the law. This book connects the common interests of lawyers and philosophers in the meaning of intention and its relation to responsibility in legal, moral and political contexts.

From the McDonald's hot coffee case to the cattle ranchers' beef with Oprah Winfrey, from the old English "Assize of Bread" to current nutrition labeling laws, what we eat and how we eat are shaped as much by legal regulations as by personal taste.

Mount Horeb Mustard Museum and a self-proclaimed "recovering lawyer," offers in Habeas Codfish an entertaining and expert overview of the frustrating, frightening, and funny intersections of food and the law. Discover how Mr. Peanut shaped the law of trademark infringement for the entire food industry. Consider the plight of the restaurant owner besmirched by a journalist's negative review. Find out how traditional Jewish laws of kashrut ran afoul of the First Amendment. Prison meals, butter vs. margarine, definitions of organic food, undercover ABC reporters at the Food Lion, the Massachusetts Supreme Court case that saved fish chowder, even recipes--it's all in here, so tuck in!
