Beasts of the Law
A quiz about three animal-related figures of legal speech (all of which had been mentioned on this blog in years past). Fill in the blanks, and provide the explanation the courts offer:
- "A red ___ case."
- "Presumptions may be looked on as the __ of the law."
- "Judges are not like __."
Note that it's not enough that judges actually aren't like, say, eels; it has to be a preexisting legal phrase.
Give your answers in the comments. No fair peeking, Googling, or Clauding.
