Coyote v. Acme Co.

For your pre-Thanksgiving weekend enjoyment, here is the opening statement of Mr. Harold Schoff, plaintiff’s attorney in Wile E. Coyote v. Acme Co., No. B19294 (D. Ariz. Feb. 18, 1990). Think of it as a lesson in the silliness of legalese, which Mr. Schoff uses to describe various mishaps caused by unreasonably dangerous conditions in Acme products.

You can find a printed copy in Ian Frazier’s book Coyote v. Acme.
