I can unequivocally state that many Protestant lawyers and friends of mine file hundreds of pleadings in court containing “Prayers For Relief”.
They pray that the Court grants them money damages, injuctive reilef, a stay of proceedings, spousal support, child support, general damages, attorney’s fees......hundreds of different kinds of relief.
They are clearly ‘praying’ and they are praying to the Court.
I’ll have to have my lawyer answer that, but I never pay him a cent, so good luck.
