Happy Thanksgiving 2021!
Happy Thanksgiving dear readers!
I would be the first to admit that times are tough – for many, many Americans times have been tougher recently than they have been in a while. But even in the face of the difficulties that are mounted before us, I would respectfully submit to you, dear readers, that we still have very much to be grateful for.
In the words of everyone’s favorite Lannister: “Death is so terribly final, while life is full of possibilities.”
As is often enough the case, there appears to be a conflict between the California Rules of Court and California Government Code 6700, regarding the days to be considered holidays. While the California Supreme Court regards both Thanksgiving (Thursday, November 25, 2021) and the day after Thanksgiving (Friday, November 26, 2021) to be holidays upon which “The California courts will be closed”, Government Code 6700 only lists Thanksgiving itself as a holiday.
So, to play it safe, you may want to file any necessary paperwork on Friday November 26, 2021, rather than trusting that the deadline that otherwise falls on that day shall be extended to the following Monday (November 29, 2021).
In any case, dear readers, happy Thanksgiving and, if you plan to take your life in your hands by shopping tomorrow, may the odds be ever in your favor.
