The law is what actually happens.<br /><br />What actually happens to a City attorney when he or she ignores the written law? Nothing. They stall another records filer, and nothing happens, again and again. There&#39;s your real law. What are you going to do? What do you think you can do about it if &quot;The Law&quot; is just empty words on paper? <br /><br />In Indiana, the good attorneys know the written law is meaningless and play within the realm of what actually can happen. The written law is mere window dressing.<br /><br />In many ways, Indiana is a quasi-anarchic state, as there is no fixed law in Indiana.<br /><br />If you want to know what the law is in Indiana, you bring your matter to the folks who will create the actual results, and you work it out with them. <br /><br />When you go into court using the written law, you risk embarrassing the real law, and the real law might be forced to make an example of you.<br /><br />You could go to Federal Court, but you need be sure you&#39;re going to win in Chicago, because the real law in Indiana doesn&#39;t have too many superiors. They have to listen to the 7th Circuit, but heaven help you if you lose in Federal Court.<br /><br />If you think &quot;The Law&quot; is what&#39;s written in a book, and if you expect the government to be held to its own words, you&#39;re in the wrong state.
