… the litigation cascade continues until the global foundation of law collapses into a process singularity, a savage maelstrom of process and judiciary from which no right can emerge. Inside the twisting mass every particle sits on every jury and is a judge for a number of cases relational to its positional energy and distance to the core.

What emerges is a utopian society where all recourse to law is mandated by Judge Judy.
