When Brett Kimberlin filed his first suit against me, I offered to settle the case if he paid me one million dollars. However, my offer was only good until my lawyer had to file either a dispositive motion or an answer to the suit. If were to happen, and it did, the settlement offer would be withdrawn. At that point, my approach to the case became murum aries attigit. The TKPOTD for eight years ago today explained the meaning of that phrase.

I’ve said this before, but it bears repeating: Murum aries attigit.

To understand the historical context of that principle, one should read Julius Caesar’s Commentarii de bello Gallico beginning at II.xxxii.

I’m not done with him yet.
