CDecide — “help me choose”The judge walks in at 9:50 and needs one paginated, bookmarkable file containing the complaint,…+
The judge walks in at 9:50 and needs one paginated, bookmarkable file containing the complaint, exhibits, and the late brief that was emailed this morning. I’m the only clerk here today; I can merge and paginate but I’m worried about losing exhibit order or changing pagination the judge relies on. Tell me the fastest safe sequence to produce a single PDF the judge can annotate, who should initial any changes, and one sharp check to run before I hand it over.
when the reply comes backPush once: ask it to sharpen the weakest part, and to say what it assumed.
