Cathy Eller and Will Hines join Billy to discuss Byrne v Boadle, Court of Exchequer, 159 Eng. Rep. 299 (Ex. 1863), in which plaintiff was struck and badly injured by a barrel of flour which fell from a window on the second floor of the warehouse, owned by the defendant, a flour dealer. The Court determined that "the thing speaks for itself" and dealt a blow to the moneyed the interests of flour dealers and barrel manufacturer, everywhere.

What is Laying Down the Law with Billy DeClercq, Esq.?

Billy - a real lawyer - invites comedians and improvisers to discuss real legal cases and concepts. He helps them dissect the case, then they throw it in the improv blender to create comedic magic in completely original scenes. Then, Billy throws off his gloves and goes for the jugular by asking heavyweight questions to find out what makes his guests tick.
