Absolutely possible, my point was that, lacking a pro-bono law firm, the lowly individual is for all practical purposes unable to pursue any such litigation. It’s simply phenomenally expensive. And if you speak to attorneys, they will tell you, most cases where an aggrieved party sues another for some wrong, perceived or real, the case gets to a point where the plaintiff simply cannot afford to proceed farther for financial reasons. This can be recognized in advance or learned along the way...but there are few things that consume more money than litigation.
If your research doesn’t match the predetermined outcome, you are fired.
Yes, but it does expose the ugly inside of the beast.
Thanks Zhang Fei.
Back in 2006, the Regional Clean Air Authority called me and said they wanted to put in a new PM2.5 gauge in the city where I was working. I asked my boss the City Manager and we both agreed that it should be mounted at City Call as we were located in the geographic center of the city. The CAA requested they be allowed to install it at the school district’s bus garage facility. I said if they did that it would skew the results. They dug in and we dug in and they lost.
They obviously didn’t care about true science or results.
