legal gymnastics

When someone pulls of some radd stunts in the court of law.

It's like mental gymnastics except that logic gets thrown out the window in favor of law and justice.

Commonly paired with the analogy of comparing a court room to a three ring circus.
Freelancer: I am concerned about the implications of my work on this project impacting the eligibility of the company to transfer the copyright of this software to the Free Software Foundation for solidification of the GPL license by virtue of my contributions making me a contributor to this project and a stakeholder in the copyright.

Boss: You are being employed by the company and acting on behalf of the company as you develop the software, so your contributions are actually the company contributing to itself, depriving you of any stakeholding. As for the separate git repo you are developing as a subproject, an independently functional subproject does not automatically become its own entity. This git repo separates the code solely to make the project easier to manage and does not constitute an intellectually independent work; instead, this subject and the larger project are together one piece of software. Moreover, the company has not authorized you to accept contributions from yourself, which prevents any possible contamination of the copyright.

Freelancer: Thank you for your insights. I am glad to hear your thorough evaluation and legal gymnastics of this project to develop remote-controlled vibrator software to pleasure beautiful hot sexy women everywhere anytime they want a hit of dopamine right in their wet lush pussy.

Legal

Don't forget. If the legal avenues don't work; my only other choice is violence.
Because unfortunately; that's just how the world works. I punish you and live. OR I punish you and die. My life is in your hand. Even if I have no legal recourse.
