Using the "related images" search feature with your image, I am seeing things like "Miner's lettuce" and "hoary cress" come up, but that may be in relation to the thicker forb leaves in the image. I have no clue how anyone might tell grasses apart from each other!

I have similar plants, both the docks and the grass. Would it be common woodland sedge Carex blanda?

I think you got it May. Thank you. I already pulled it out of the garden. I sure don't need another sedge war.
 
I miss the old days when I would think up a sinister scheme for world domination and you would show a little emotional support. So just look at this tiny ad:
