Having had to navigate the English court system in order to enforce a Washington state preliminary injunction against a UK company, I would agree that the US court system is not the only mind-blasting legal system that I've encountered. FWIW, the US has two parallel systems of courts - the state courts (like California, New York, Texas - each of the fifty states) and the federal courts. Each has different procedural rules, subject-matter jurisdiction and so on. Federal judges are - on the whole - more professional and less quirky than state judges (especially in states like Washington where they are elected).

It would appear so - we lawyers revel in our SAN 0 status.
