A Petition for Rehearing that is Unlikely to Win

Every now and then I help a friend out on a project. We received a Petition for Rehearing that was filed by the Defendant in this case (without a lawyer). I will reprint the Statement of Issue and Conclusion in their entirety:

Statement of Issue Presented for Review: The Court of Appeals committed a major error in affirming the dismissal. The Court did not address the facts of the case. The Court has a warped perspective of the Rule of Law.

Conclusion: The Court Administration should have the case reviewed by competent individuals.

Ouch. I doubt insulting the Court will make it change it’s mind. Even, if he feels he’s right, that’s not a good way to win friends and influence people.
