Contradictory Legal Strategy
Reader comment on item: Judge Smacks CAIR's "Careless" Lawsuit Management

Yerushalmi says the case is ripe for summary juddgment, but the closing point is that the case is scheduled for mediation.

The two steps appear to be contradictory.

If Yerushalmi sees that an application for summary judgment dismissing the case will probably be successful, which I presume would also award Gaubatz his legal costs in defending the suit, why not proceed with that motion before trying mediation?

If the motion is successful, that is the end of it. If not, there is always mediation.
