I have a client that was getting screwed royally by a judge in his divorce hearings. The judge was running for his ten year retention in a November election.
In this rural area, the judge rode his horse in the community Halloween parade throwing out candy and campaign info to the children and people watching.
My client painted a manure spreader red, white & blue, hitched it to an antique truck and plastered it with signs that read “Vote NO for Judge Retention”, “We have had enough of his manure!” He followed the Judge in the Halloween Parade.
Two days later my client got a letter from the judge recusing him from the case. Best legal maneuver with minimal cost I have ever observed!!!

Now that was clever. Was that the intent, or was it serendipity?
