Double Negatives are a no no.

I received a set of Requests for Admissions recently that were all worded in undecipherable double and triple negatives. I objected to all of them (and then answered them in full sentences instead of just "Denied" for fear of having them all automatically admitted for nonresponsiveness or answering them the wrong way by mistake). I'm not sure if the writing was calculated to trip up my (previously pro-se and uneducated) client or the other attorney is just an idiot, but it sure made answering them a pain in the ass.
