	Jarndyce and Jarndyce - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Jarndyce and Jarndyce is a fictional court case in chancery in the novel Bleak House by Charles Dickens.
		The case concerns the fate of a large inheritance, but has dragged on for many years, so that, by the time it is resolved late in the novel, legal costs have devoured nearly the entire estate.
		The little plaintiff or defendant who was promised a new rocking-horse when Jarndyce and Jarndyce should be settled has grown up, possessed himself of a real horse, and trotted away into the other world.

		Generous and caring, John Jarndyce becomes guardian to the young wards of court Ada and Richard, while also developing a deep love for Esther.

		Jarndyce's life is turned around when he takes in the three youngsters and it's not long before he falls in love with Esther, who is some 30 years his junior.

		Standing on a seat at the side of the hall, the better to peer into the curtained sanctuary, is a little mad old woman in a squeezed bonnet who is always in court, from its sitting to its rising, and always expecting some incomprehensible judgment to be given in her favour.
		Presently he rose courteously and released her, and then he spoke for a minute or two with Richard Carstone, not seated, but standing, and altogether with more ease and less ceremony, as if he still knew, though he WAS Lord Chancellor, how to go straight to the candour of a boy.
		Young as she was when her mama died, she remembered how the tears would come into her eyes when she spoke of him and of the noble generosity of his character, which she had said was to be trusted above all earthly things; and Ada trusted it.

		Jarndyce, the name involved in the novel’s massive court battle (a suit that is in itself the biggest villain in the novel) has an interesting etymology--one that is very applicable to BH.
		Jarndyce, of course, is the man who takes in the aforementioned three young adults and later wants to marry Esther.
		Jarndyce had formerly been involved in J and J, but he recognized the jaundiced look of the suit and court system before it could pollute and destroy him.

		Jarndyce has been a joke in the courts because it had dragged on for decades.
		John Jarndyce, kind-hearted owner of the ironically-titled Bleak House, takes care of his two young cousins Richard Carstone and Ada Clare, and a ward named Esther Summerson.
		John Jarndyce tries to talk him out of it, but Richard thinks that his cousin only wants him out of the case because, as it turns out, they've got some conflicting interests.

		Jarndyce proposed, knowing my desolate position, that I should go to a first-rate school, where my education should be completed and my comfort secured.
		Jarndyce, for the unhappy boy had taken it into his head that the case of Jarndyce and Jarndyce would yet be settled, and would bring him fortune, and this kept him from devoting himself seriously to any profession.
		He told us that Jarndyce and Jarndyce was a monument of Chancery practice, and-in a good many words-that the case was over because the whole estate was found to have been absorbed in costs.

	The Sharpener » Blog Archive » The left and flat taxes
		I’m in two minds about the flat tax idea, as it will mean the rate being set higher if people towards the bottom end of the income scale are to be excluded altogether.
		In a flat tax system, the marginal rate is all that matters and the question of whether that rate should be set below or above the current higher rate of income tax is not a technical detail which can be ironed out later once the battle is won.
		Jarndyce, the closing-loopholes debate is entirely separable; it’s the debate over a GAAR (General Anti-Avoidance Rule).
