Now that there are more #legalwriting & #appellatesky people here, I thought I’d repost this example of storytelling that might or might not help the lawyer’s client’s case. It struck me as taking too long to get to the point, but it was written by good lawyers on a topic that isn’t at all my area.

In this amicus, the Ohio Chamber of Commerce starts with a story from the original Dickens Christmas Carol, & then moves to the Muppet version to make a point about Ohio's commercial activities tax. A #LegalWriting example of how storytelling can help or hurt a brief. Link to docket & briefs next. ⚖️
