The written opinion given by the supreme court of Oklahoma was hilarious. They basically stated that AA could not be counted on to control the weather, etc and it was a waste of the court's time. They made him pay all court costs, including my husband's bill.
Could you get the cite for that judgment from your husband. Sounds like fun reading.
