How do I stop Westlaw from turning headnotes into dead links when I save them in a folder? When I retrieve the headnotes, the number next to them turns into a "1" with no hyperlink back (regardless of what number the headnote was). I saved about 300 of these to find cases to cite later and can't now

Headnote - light and clean Tasks & Notes app

Hi guys,

wanted to post updates to my old post, but unfortunately the post is in archive now.

I am still working on my own super light, clean and fast notes and tasks Android application. It is completely free and without any ads. I tried to make it as clean and minimalistic as possible. Also, trying to make UI and UX better and better.

I've just added Pomodoro timer to better focus on tasks and subtasks, as were requested in previous comments, hope you will find them useful.

So now list of functionality looks like this:

  • you can have list of subtasks
  • you can sync data across devices / I am using Firebase for both authorisation and data storage
  • you can add tags and filter by them
  • you can have floating button or notification after call to remind you to save some notes after important calls
  • pomodoro timer
  • you can add contacts, locations and links to your notes and tasks
  • dark mode

Please check it out on Google Play Store

Please add your comments or feature requests, will try to answer on them as soon as possible.

Thanks, Nick.

What are the conventions around copying and pasting legal rules from headnotes, cases, and/or practice guides into memos and/or court documents?

Just learning the ins and outs of legal writing at the moment. So my question is, is it possible to simply copy and paste a legal rule, from say, a case, in your writing? I ask because in other types of writing, involving research, there is sometimes the issue of plagiarism. So you are meant to, in that type of academic writing, understand the author's thinking and in many cases translate it into your own words. However in this particular way it seems counterproductive to do so for legal rules, since precision is important, and it's not necessarily the best place to be creative, given the very requirement of precedence, stare decisis, and communicating the exact legal rule in the shortest amount of space. What are people's thoughts about this? Thank you for your time!

Funny Headnotes/Legal Opinions

While searching for summary judgment and complaint dismissal standards, I found Grillo v. John Alden Life Insurance Co., 939 F.Supp.685 (D.Minn. 1996).

Headnote reads:

>Under Minnesota law, supervisor’s comments referring to employee as β€œLuigi,” a derogatory moniker inspired by video game, and calling employee a β€œshort, ugly, and stupid Italian” and a β€œdago guinea” and referring to employee as a β€œcocksucker” with a β€œtwo inch dick” were not actionable defamation; whether employee in fact resembled β€œLuigi” or was β€œshort and stupid” were matters not susceptible of empirical determination and were not capable of being proven true or false and supervisor’s alleged description of employee as a β€œcocksucker,” although uncomplimentary, did not suggest verifiably false facts about employee.

Why?

SERIOUS: This subreddit needs to understand what a "dad joke" really means.

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

Dropped my best ever dad joke & no one was around to hear it

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies πŸ˜‚

I was almost upset that my coffee tasted like dirt today

but then I remembered it was ground this morning.

Edit: Thank you guys for the awards, they're much nicer than the cardboard sleeve I've been using and reassures me that my jokes aren't stale

Edit 2: I have already been made aware that Men In Black 3 has told a version of this joke before. If the joke is not new to you, please enjoy any of the single origin puns in the comments

These aren't dad jokes...

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.

If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.

Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
