Procedure Code. or .Ch.
§. Relation between Lawyer and non-Lawyers
1. Lawyers (professional) natural and names of
all non-lawyer
2. Non lawyers suffering greater than lawyers enjoyment from
lawyers operations
3. Admission – Lawyers not more hostile in their dispositions
as towards non-lawyers than other persons are to the
respective competition – tradesman to tradesman – artist to conductor
directors and consumers
4. But men of other profit-seeking occupations have no
such power of hurting their adversaries, in interest as lawyers
have. Lawyers therefore to be made war upon with
proportionable energy: and the only warfare necessary to the purpose
is the simple and detached statement of the truth: of
by which the of the interest of the lawyer to that of
non lawyer is demonstrated, and the artifices deceptions and employed by them
in the practice and defence of their are laid
bare.
5. Practical conclusion. Nothing that without deception in the
endeavour as it can contribute to lessen the confidence reposed
in them the defiance paid to their authority, the reliance
placed in this declared opinion on the subject in question can be
either improper or superfluous. To the subject manys
and these irreconcilable ones they are: and so being, such it is necessary
they should be represented to be as being
6. In respect of depravity what distinguishes them from other
public enemies to mankind is their hypocrisy. No mercantile man
pretends to any such generous care of the interests of his competition
as lawyers pretend to have for the interests of non-lawyers.
7. On lawyer no non-lawyer should scruple to inflict
whatsoever suffering on the part of lawyers is necessary to the purpose
of self defence on the part of himself and all other non-lawyers.
Nor on the other hand is he warrantable to inflict on them
an amount of suffering not necessary for that purpose
No man would be justfyable in putting to needless torture
a wolf, tyger, crocodile or rattlesnake: every man is justifiable in
whatever endeavours are necessary to the ridding himself from the danger of
whatever danger evil he stands exposed to suffer at the from their attacks.
