It doesn't sound too explanatory to me. Also, don't you mean "impudent churl"?

I'm scared to ask why you know what "insucken multure" means --- but, why do you?

haha, i fixed it. i knew it looked wierd when i wrote it, but my brain was rather overwhelmed at the time and i couldnt quite figure out why. doh.

besides, a few extra letters never hurt anyone!

i was in the middle of trying to clear up in my brain the difference between "insufficiency of process" and "insuficiency of service of process." i was quite clear on the latter, but the former i just couldnt seem to think about in a way that i could articulate.

so i tried to look it up in black's, and insucken multures happened to be on the same page.

i still dont know what being "thirled to a mill" means, but it sounds painful.

i never did figure out my original question. i think its just that "service of process" is a term of art in which the word "process" means something different than it does in the "insufficiency of process" context, but i still cant really think of an example of defective process in and of itself.

While I never found mills all that thirling myself, I found http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thirlage not to be a waste of time to read.
