I was trying to break new legal ground, like any Circuit Court Judge.
Try him in absentia (like the Soviets or ChiComs did).
For a new crime. Establish Gang membership, threats to kill an officer, ... something with enough teeth so the Patriots would not have to pay him.
Now my legal training comes from Perry Mason and Bull, so you know you can count on it.
He probably would have been one to join the White House boycott, too.
The Pats may owe his estate a pile of money in any case. I believe they withheld $2.5M that was supposed to be paid as a deferred portion of his signing bonus, and I’ve seen a number of lawyers suggest that they were on very shaky legal ground there.
