Colorado has seen its fair share of crazy since becoming a state in 1876… but the craziest thing to happen in recent years might just be the story of Charles Abbott and his attorney, Soloman. What is so crazy about this case in particular? Well, for starters…
“Soloman” is a stuffed owl.

Unfortunately for Abbott, the judge wasn’t humored by Soloman or his supposed expertise, and essentially ignored the well-educated bird. Abbott was in court for violating a protection order against his former roommate.
