Excellent Twiqbal Decision — Plaintiffs Need To Look For Some Enlightenment

"He who knows others is wise; he who knows himself is enlightened." — Lao Tzu

This may not be exactly what the court in Moore v. C.R. Bard, Inc., 2016 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 156923 (E.D. Tenn. Nov. 14, 2016) had in mind when it authored its recent opinion dismissing the complaint in this case, but the decision brought these ancient philosophical words to our mind. Of course, if we are talking about self-knowledge advice, we might be more partial to Ann Lander's "Know yourself. Don't accept your dog's admiration as conclusive evidence that you are wonderful." But, we trust you get the point. You better know yourself first before you start worrying about what you don't know about others.
