Young Axl Rose and Cake Cream in 2022! :D

[Tasha]

Axl opened up the tome on Contract Law and was stunned to see how approachable and non-mystifying the law could be.

In attempting to explain the notion of a contract, he read: "She offered her honor, he honored her offer, and was on her and off her all night."

"This is easy" he concluded; he rewarded himself with a strawberry blizzard.

The next day he and Cake Cream went before a judge seeking an injunction to prevent Wild Water from pirating their songs.

Axl was proud of his hand written motion; he had stayed within the lines of his Big Chief legal tablet.

"This shit is easy" he chuckled to himself.

But then judge V glared at him, asking "Who the hell are you?"

"I'm their attorney, Axl."

"Funny, I never saw you here before; what is your bar number?"

Axl paused, then said "555-1212; that's the phone numbor of the Plucked Goose, my favorite watering hole."

"Bailiff !" screamed the judge; two beefy bailiffs appeared.

"Arrest this man; he's practicing law without a license. Contempt of court. Thirty days in the cooler."

Axl thanked the judge and tried to shake his hand but the bailiffs interpreted his action as an attempted assault so he was well and thoroughly tased.

"Fucking amateur" exclaimed judge V; "take him away, boys, and soften him up a bit with those billy clubs."

Yep, did research after writing this part (I was also thinking Axl would have to pass the bar)and Axl could be in so much trouble for practicing law without a license, but I'm thinking of handwaving this as Axl being a LAWYER and not an Attorney. IIRC,. anyone can act as your Lawyer, but NOT as your Attorney.(In an upcoming part, a Prosecutor points out that Billy is Axl's Boyfriend, so that definitely is unethical for Axl to be dating his Client as a Lawyer) Besides, Axl was already Cake Cream's Legal Representative , so naturally the next step was him being their Lawyer.

Edit. The Contracts Axl had Cake Cream read, understood agreed and sign stating Axl was their Lawyer is legally binding. Besides, Claven Records agreed to let Axl be Cake Cream's Lawyer and Cake Cream are Claven Records Employees. So, Claven Records could be held legally liable for agreeing to let Axl be Cake Cream's Lawyer. Claven Records could have said something like,"Are you guys crazy? We're not going to let Axl, who is not a legally licensed Lawyer be your Lawyer! Get out of here!" But Claven Records agreed, so they could be held legally liable.
