Blogger Explains IRAC (Not a country)

Blogger recently used the IRAC method of legal analysis when explaining a legal theory to a client. Here is a paraphrase of the analysis.

Issue: Is the victim giving the defendant an STD a defense to a subsequent domestic battery charge.

(Editors Note: If you are unaware of the meaning of “STD,” I will enlighten you. It means “Some Terrible Discomfort.” If anyone questions this definition, ask them how this is wrong. I seriously doubt they will have an answer in the negative.”

Rule: No.

Application: Legally, this defense is more likely to make a judge laugh than anything else.

Conclusion: A person thinking of using the STD as a defense to a future crime should realize that jails are alarmingly ill equipped to adequately create a comfortable environment for STD suffering residents. This should be considered before taking potentially illegal action.

For further great analysis of the pressing legal issues of the day, feel free to give me a call.
