I do not guaranteethat the research approach I have out-lined will find every “case just likemine from Georgia”.
Obviously there is no method to guarantee our perfect case will be found, yet this seems so frustrating. You can go through the whole research process, doing each step as well as it can be done, and still not end up finding what you're looking for. Sometimes the "case just like mine" doesn't exist which is quite the bitter conclusion to reach after a lengthy research process.

Many judges have also tied poor legal writing to a lack of professionalism.
This paragraph was interesting because it displayed that at certain instances the legal profession has governed itself to a standard of legal writing. The next paragraph even gives examples of the court directly giving judgements and punishment to attorneys who have failed to meet this unestablished standard. The author seems to be calling for an ABA standard of writing, but maybe it would be more effective for courts to establish the acceptable standard and monitor itself. If this custom were to be expanded on, the result may be the most effective and efficient way to establish good legal writing as a requirement to practicing the law.
