Do you appeal your dismissal of your suit suing yourself?

So a cat runs on the platform of firing a guy he says is not necessary. Before the cat can take office, the local commissioners-that-be say hey, we want to continue the long standing tradition of giving good ole boys money for nuthin and they vote the soon-to-be-fired guy a severance package. All this goes down under the watch of county's attorney who voices no concerns over this or the quality of coffee at the meetings. When cat takes office, he's got a whole mess of political mojo going his way and he raises the stink about the guy he didn't get to fire getting a severance package despite the fact that his package was severed years earlier when the county bid him adios. County Attorney decides to shine the jubliees of cat and sues his client (the county) for giving the guy a severance package that he sat by and let go down without even the slightest "my neck hurts" wimper. Guy hires attorneys to fend off lawsuit. Attorneys and County Attorney suing himself reach a settlement whereby guy will do some work for the county to repay all the ducketts he got for no reason. County Commissioners vote to a draw on whether to accept settlement. County Attorney then says he doesn't have time to fewl with trying to recover a paltry $38K and, since the Commissioners won't accept the settlement, he'll just dismiss the lawsuit.

What in the hell? It's worth enough to you to sue your one and only client but, when they don't take your advice and settle when you tell them to, it's worthless and should be dismissed? You think you've got enough legal standing to sue your own client and a former employee for doing something and accepting money under your apparrently glassy and blood shot eyes but you it ain't worth anymore of your time when you just can't settle the suit without having to do any work?

I love this freaking town. Where else can a guy get indignant about a bunch of people he sued for doing something he advised them to do not accepting a settlement he negotiated? If he were playing on both sides of the fence any more he'd have road rash on his balls from the constant jumping from side to side. I can't imagine why a bunch of fewls you sued for doing something you advised them to do would be weary about taking your advice regarding the same lawsuit?

You truly can't make this stuff up.

I'm just sayin....
