Certainly not with the court, but possibly for their client.
Unfortunately the realities of private practice lead to that kind of results. You have 10 other cases and this TRO has to be filed this week. So you shoot for Tuesday or Wednesday but then someone drops a file on fire on your desk on Monday and you tell yourself that filing by Thursday will be fine. Of course the client who needs to sign the affidavit is in a meeting all day Wednesday and you can’t get him to look at the thing until Thursday. Ok, so now you’re shooting for Thursday afternoon but he ends up giving you feedback that require you to change some of your arguments. And then your partner or whomever gets pulled on another job covering a depo so you get sidetracked into another “quick” job and now you’re hoping to get this thing filed on Friday morning. So you show up bright and early on Friday but for some reason your computer is down/corrupt file/[insert whatever event outside of your control] and you lose 2 hours. By 5:00 Friday you’re lucky to get thins thing filed and you go pass out/get drunk and curse yourself ...
