- And finally, More Prejudicial Than Probative – Laser Tripod Edition is brought to us this week by Hardin v. Town of Leakesville, in which homeowner sued town for water damage allegedly resulting from, uh, well, leaks. Just a terrible look when your town is named for the very injury at issue. We’ll keep you posted on any news from Murdersville. In a genuinely baffling twist, no less an authority than THE SUPREME COURT OF MISSISSIPPI noted in its opinion that a consultant retained by the plaintiff surveyed the property, “using a laser level tripod he had previously purchased from a hardware store.” Oh, purchased from a hardware store. And purchased previously. Important clarification, as we naturally assumed that the laser level had been purchased in the future from Kathy’s Bridal Emporium.
