Courtoons

You can now buy any Courtoon, printed on photo-quality glossy paper, which I will hand sign and ship in a matte-style frame that is suitable for hanging or placing on a desk (or throwing at a summer associate).   This makes a great unique holiday gift for lawyers, judges, and law students.  The total price for each is $35.  Free shipping anywhere in the continental U.S.

To order, do two things:

1. Send an e-mail to dm@MillsFederalAppeals.com (subject line “Courtoons Order”) with the following info:

• the date of the Courtoon(s) and brief description(s), and
• the shipping address. 

2. Pay with a credit card (or by PayPal) by clicking the PayPal Donate button below, which will take you to a payment screen for the Courtoons Fund.  (I’m using the “Donate” button because I had it set up already and you can enter whatever amount fits your order.)  You don’t need a PayPal account to do this; look to the lower left of the payment screen for regular credit-card payments.)  Then simply pay the amount necessary for the amount of prints you want.  The prompt will say “enter donation,” but it will be payment for the purchase.  Of course, if you want add amounts as a donation to the Courtoons Fund, you can do that, too.

Buy Signed Prints

Alternatively (arguendo?), you can go the old-school route and send a check made out to David Mills at this address.

Times have changed since the last timesheet.

Courtoons are back.  (At least for today.)  Thank you for all the comments regarding the Break in the Action.  I found the comment by Fordham Law ‘10 at 6:50 about starting a “Mills Legal Fund” amusing, but it also got me thinking . . . Read the rest of this entry »

The streak of a Courtoon every weekday for 34 weeks has come to an end.  (I actually thought I might run out of ideas around week 3.)  I will continue to post Courtoons as I generate them here and there, so continue to check in.  Also, a number of people have asked for signed prints, and I am working on an addition to the site to enable orders.  I’m also hoping to create a Courtoons book, which I intend to be well suited for law offices (or perhaps for lining bird cages).

But why, you ask, is the streak ending?  In short: Not enough hours in the day.  As The Mills Law Office LLC approaches its one-year anniversary, a significant amount of time is required of its managing partner (me) and janitor (me).  The good news is that things are busy; the bad news is that Courtoons has to take the hit.  (Of course, for those who think Courtoons absolutely suck, this is a win-win.  See, e.g., Anonymous Commenter #11 v. Courtoons, 12 U.S. 345 (AboveTheLaw Aug. 6, 2009).)

Finally, thank you for following Courtoons.  There were many times (usually around 11:43 pm on a Wednesday while cursing out a blank piece of paper) that I thought Courtoons might end, but remembering a comment or e-mail motivated me to keep them coming.  Very appreciated.
