lawyers and humor? Hopeless. The devil tried also do not get used to at the holy water . And if they yet again escapes a small little joke, he is guaranteeing listless that possibly can lawyer laugh about this. exceptions prove the rule. Even emotionless concrete blocks can sometimes be unintentionally hilarious. This especially true when lawyers to decide a case have that just did not fit into their narrow-world view when they are on to something here about frivolous and wooden in their Language to report.
what happened in a decided case before the District Court of Moenchengladbach, which has now classic status and is available here:
There had booked the plaintiff by the defendant for himself and his partner a holiday to Menorca. He had booked a double room with double bed. After arrival, he had to find that it was in its assigned room not a double bed but two separate single beds, which were not interconnected. Already on the first night he had to therefore conclude that he thereby in his Bed-and Beischlafgewohnheiten was disrupted. A peaceful and harmonious sleep and was not Beischlaferlebnis throughout the holiday season came about because the individual beds, which would also have been on slippery tiles, were parted in the middle at every smallest movement. A harmonious intercourse was therefore was almost completely prevented.
The plaintiff demanded compensation for damages in the amount of 615.60 DM who the loser, the mockery not have to worry. The thought probably the precipitating judge's decision, as he explained in his ruling:
" The plaintiff has not shown which he has special Beischlafgewohnheiten that require to fixed double beds. This point, however, need not be informed because it is not on specific habits of the plaintiff, but whether the beds are not suitable for the average traveler. This is not the case. The court, several well-known and conventional variations of the execution of sexual intercourse are known which can be exercised on a single bed, and that to the total satisfaction of all concerned. It is therefore absolutely not the case that the applicant had a holiday without him most of the desired sex life have to spend. "
But that is not enough! The judge believes the plaintiff, even handy tips on how he had the disturbing in the implementation of the Intimate traffic drifting apart of the beds can be avoided.
" The applicant has submitted a photo of the beds is on the photo to realize that the mattresses on a rigid frame are, which is apparently made of metal. It would have taken only a few steps and would have been done in a few minutes to connect the two metal frame by a sturdy rope to each other. It may be now that the applicant something like this does not with me. A cord is to be feared but little money. To have to obtain this line, the applicant use such as his trouser belt may, for this was its original function at the moment not sure needed. "
And the moral of the story. Lawyers are not only humorless, but fun brakes allow you not even us compensation if we have to do without while on holiday in the most beautiful thing in the world is finally ask how the decision. probably would have failed if the plaintiff would have needed the belt for sexual practices that were unknown to the court?
