Never Sleep On Your Rights
from Quintus Curtius · host Quintus Curtius
When you are faced with a serious problem or issue, you need to spring into action to deal with it. Anyone who "sleeps on his rights," and thinks the problem will go away by ignoring it, is in for a rude awakening. The "dirtbag shuffle" never works in the real world. Legal rights, once constructively waived, can be very difficult to reassert later. This is the basis of the legal theory of laches.
