I am now meeting resistance from an opposing attorney. No stated reason, just resistance. Has anyone had one of these challenged? Have I been using this technique in error for the last 34 years? As always, the opinion of the collective is much appreciated. <o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div></body></html>
