15. A big part of my last paragraph is about your first sentence.

They are so absolute in their claim that it can have no basis in reality. I would think that would not only hurt their case but horrify any past clients. I think there would be an argument there if they hadn’t put it forward in such an absolute manner. Ignorance isn’t the best argument at this level.

The “exceptional” argument is real and should be given more merit, IMO. Seems the judge is doing just that. I don’t think the judge will be impressed by this damn near non-response on any level. An opportunity was given to Cohens team to make an argument and they did so in a very weak manner. I’m assuming they feel more comfortable putting a stronger case together on appeal or just using that process to drag it out.

I really feel that I’m half as smart as the people involved here but I could have made a stronger argument. Something else is going on. They know they put forward a weak argument.
