When you’re a regularly practicing attorney, PACER is a purely utilitarian website for reprinting a pleading that you should have on file but you’ve clearly lost. But when you’re on the journalism side, it’s really just the gift that keeps on giving.
Because there are people in this world that say crazy stuff. And then there are people who set their wild, belligerent ramblings to writing. And then, if you’re really lucky, those people will get into a federal lawsuit and allow us all a glimpse into their world.
Yesterday, this tweet from WSJ’s Katy Stech Ferek crossed my feed:

“Exhibit: Belligerent Email…” is some top-notch ECF indexing. So many ignore the power of a good title.
It seems CEO Stephen “Super Steve” Edwards of the debtor Mesa Blue LLC, aka Gucci Blue LLC, aka 1630 S. 36th LLC, aka The Super Trust Fund, aka 1765 N Lemon LLC, aka Super Limo did not appreciate the Trustee’s Objection:
AI Is Reshaping Legal Practice—But Tools Aren’t The Real Differentiator.
Explore the mindset, cultural shifts, and training strategies that define the AI‑savvy lawyer, revealing why human judgment, standardized competence, and integrated learning—not technology alone—will shape the future of the profession.
Fantastic. I want to think Edwards for his email.
