Which Federal Rule of Civil Procedure are you?

I was rule 8(a).

You are Rule 8, the most laid back of all the Federal Rules of Civil
Procedure. While your forefather in the Federal Rules may have been a stickler
for details and particularity, you have clearly rebelled by being pleasant and
easy-going. Rule 8 only requires that a plaintiff provide a short and plain
statement of a claim on which a court can grant relief. While there is much to
be lauded in your approach, your good nature sometimes gets you in trouble, and
you often have to rely on your good friend, Rule 56, to bail you out.


Which rule are you?

Comments:
I was 20(a): permissive joinder of parties. Thing is, I don't like group work. Too bad I wasn't 56(c): motion for summary judgment.
