As zainy of a legal defense as Bird Law, the Hunter Defense is when you know the outcome, but refuse to acknowledge it, because it did not go in your own favor.
Garrett used the Hunter Defense when questioned about losing a foot race to a slow white guy, so he could avoid lifelong embarrassment.

Get the the Hunter Defensemug. Refers to a person's using the well-known prevalence of widespread fake/mass-advertising correspondence as an excuse for his not obeying/acknowledging a 100%-legitimate-but-unwelcome message he has received, such as a hefty bill, restraining order, or other upsetting/disappointing directive that he does not wish to comply with ("Well, it made no sense to me, so I honestly believed it was just a fake message, and simply shrugged it off"). The effectiveness and/or defense-worthiness of said practice --- and your chances of being let off the hook as a result --- can sometimes be further bolstered by "pre-innocentizing" yourself (such as frequently showing up in court for no reason and claiming every time that you'd received an order to appear, and then finally --- after being irritably told for the umpteenth time by the court-clerk that they'd never sent you a summons --- declaring in a frustrated huff, "Fine... well, I guess somebody's been playing sick jokes on me, so from now on I'm just gonna simply IGNORE any and all such notices I receive!") sometime before committing whatever infractions would likely result in said unwelcome orders, so that you can appear justified in your non-compliance with what you supposedly thought was yet another fake order.
I successfully used the spam/telemarketer defense when asked why I hadn't answered a court-summons; I just said, "Oh, that notice was REAL? Oh my --- well, I'd honestly believed it was a fake message... since I've had so many pushy telemarketers and con-men harass me --- sometimes even falsely claiming to be tax-auditors or law-enforcement personnel --- that I'd long ago adopted an 'ignore any and all such notices as fake' policy."

Get the spam/telemarketer defensemug. Used by member's of Britain's right wing Conservative Party as a last resort when they have no valid defense or comeback; especially during Prime Minister's Question Time.
Weak leader Rishi Sunak seems particularly fond of using it despite the argument being largely irrelevant now as Jeremy Corbyn no longer sits as a Labour party member.
Background:
The animosity towards Jeremy Corbyn stems from a successful smear campaign orchestrated by the Conservative party, especially during the 2019 election campaign where it was aided by the UK's overwhelmingly right wing media including the supposedly neutral BBC.

Get the The Corbyn Defensemug. Losers.
A bunch of violently fascist losers who carry out the agenda of an apartheid state. They typically like to focus on eradicating civilians - generally, woman and children are their favorite targets.
