Premature Labor No Excuse for Missed Court Deadline
from the article:
"As the deadline approached, Cote's small law practice was beset with unforeseen distractions.
First, he was notified that an adoption application he and his wife submitted had been accepted and that he needed to go to China promptly to adopt the child. He left in September and stayed until late November.
Also that fall, Cote's partner, Theodore Limpert, was activated for reserve duty in Iraq. He did not get home until late December.
Finally, Cote's secretary, Jennifer Daily, went into premature labor in December and did not return until February."
