GT are proving to be very adept at billing the living crap out of Metter for filings that accomplish nothing but run up his legal bills!!

Bessette surely belongs in private practice - he has the gift of the business of BigLaw practice with deep-pocket clients who have their asses over a barrel.

BigLaw Business Model:

Biller: "Hay client, I've got an idea. We could file X and try to delay things and maybe change the game (even though I know it won't work) - shall we do this?"

Gullible Client: "What's the downside?"

Biller: "There is no downside whatsoever to filing it."

Gullible Client: "Would you recommend that we do it?"

Biller: "Yes, I think it can do no harm and might help. (even though I know it's pointless)"

Gullible Client: "Cha-ching, baby. Hay, Sandy, get that new first year associate who is low on billables this month and looking for projects to come to my office for a motion drafting assignment, and tell him to bring one of the summer associate clerks with him to do some billable legal research for it."
