Music to my ears

The Institute for Creation Research has been seeking accreditation in Texas in order to be able to award a Master's degree in science education. Having been denied by the Texas Higher Education Coordination Board, ICR has filed a federal law suit. As part of it, ICR has also filed a request to be able to temporarily award the degree while their case is pending. The request has been turned down by the court; here's an excerpt from the ruling:
It appears that although the court has twice required the Plaintiff to re-plead and set forth a short and plain statement of the relief requested, Plaintiff is entirely unable to file a request which is not overly verbose, disjointed, incoherent, maundering, and full of irrelevant information.
Ouch. Reading this has filled my heart with joy reminiscent of that which I felt when first seeing the court ruling on Kitzmiller vs. Dover Area School District.
