Description
1 This lawsuit departs somewhat from the usual in that a lawyer is condemned by an unhappy former client, Ida Drain Birchfield, primarily for what she says is his psychological inability or unwillingness to follow her legal advice! Our appellate review is made extraordinarily difficult from a legal standpoint because Birchfield, a layman, filed and is prosecuting this appeal apparently without the aid of a lawyer. Her lengthy brief, for instance, violates several court rules, contains an abundance of immaterial discourse, beseeches us to make "a decision embodying new policy," and, what is perhaps most disconcerting, requests us to sit as a "court of peer review, over the conduct of the respondent in this suit." To do this, of course, would require us to go beyond the scope of inquiry circumscribed by specific error said to have been committed by the trial court, that is, the sustention of a demurrer to Birchfields fourth amended petition. The trial court held the pleading did not state a cause of action and dismissed it without leave to amend further. Plaintiff, of course, appeals. We affirm.
