      gotta disagree with a treasured mutual here "procedural bullshit" is super important if party A can only issue a building permit after procedure B, and I allege that procedure B did not happen, or if cops can only search a house after warrant C has been issued ...https://twitter.com/The_Petrichory/status/1504475257364631558 …

      Delaying a trial for years with procedural bullshit, getting convicted and sentenced and then immediately sprung from jail to likely delay an appeal for years because you have money and connections doesn't exactly scream "justice" at me.

      2/ the word "process" in the phrase "due process" refers to procedures. This is Kegan 4 stuff. We, as a society, should not want to reach the "right conclusions". We should want to reach the right conclusions while following the proper procedures. This sounds legalistic >>>

      3/ ...but forms matter. We don't want the airline mechanic to put the right seal in the jet engine ... we want him to scan the barcode on the plastic bag, verify the the holographic seal, open the bag using rubber gloves free of grit, install the seal using the right tool...

      4/ Getting the right result once is good ... but it's not scaleable. Foramlized process deskills things so that certain foreseeable errors are avoided, routinely.

      5/ I agree that the courts are inefficient. My town issued an illegal building permit in 2018, and in 2022 I have won one lawsuit ...and now have two more filed, which will be heard in Sept 2024...in a process that will likely not finish until 2028.https://twitter.com/GregM410/status/1504479246294544384 …

      Yes, but something is obviously wrong in some of these procedures of procedures. Justice, whether criminal or civil, shouldn’t take years.

      6/ #BarnLaw it could chafe if I let it ... but what's the point? The situation is what it is, and dwelling on the sucky aspects of it would just lower my own happiness. So instead I concentrate on the joy of fighting.https://twitter.com/The_Petrichory/status/1504482071103762443 …

      Also, doesn't it chafe that the city is using money they taxed from you to continue a fight with you on an issue that they have been ruled against in a court you also paid for? I mean, man. I ain't you, and *I'm* pissed about that.

      Replying to @MorlockP

      True, but the original question was about whether this is just and fair at the meta level. In the #BarnLaw saga, you've had a lot of correspondence with people who have made it quite clear that corrupt local officials is actually the norm pretty much everywhere.
