Tena, Eric and Harold are working on a Rule 155 beancount after a T. C. Memo. I didn’t blog, but “an actual late-winter blizzard” (Order, at p. 1) prevented counsel from meeting with the trio and finishing up.

“The Court understands, since it seems to shut down when there a warning of a wisp of snow. See http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-xpm-2009-01-29-0901281008-story.html (President Obama unsuccessfully calling for “flinty Chicago toughness” on snow days in DC).” Order at p. 1.
