    “Are You a Lawyer?” by Duane Anderson

    She asked if I was a lawyer
    because she said I looked like one,
    but I told her no,
    not knowing if I was just given
    a compliment or an insult, not knowing
    if I was standing at the doorstop
    of good versus evil?

    I should have returned the favor,
    and asked just how familiar
    was she with lawyers.
    Had she been jailed multiple times,
    requiring their talents to get her out?
    A question never asked, an answer never given,
    but life continued on for each of us.

  8. …If confirmed, #EdMartin would…direct an office that prosecuted advisers to #Trump — including Martin allies #RogerStone & #MikeFlynn — as well as Dem atty Gregory B. Craig in past federal investigations into #Russia #influence ops.

    …Martin has posed a challenge for the #Senate #Judiciary Cmte, not only bc of his lack of experience as a prosecutor or trial #lawyer but also bc of the volume of his statements on social media & in traditional media, & the unusual extent of his omissions.

  9. Back in 2018, Beaver Lake Cree filed for an #AdvancedCostOrder - #ACO - to secure funds from #Alberta and #Canada in order to continue accessing #justice for their #TreatyRights case, a case which will protect their people and territory from further expansion of the Alberta #TarSands and other #ResourceExtraction industries if successful. But, the cost of litigation for a case this momentous was more than the #FirstNation could front. That’s where the ACO comes in.

    After six years, and reaching the #SupremeCourt of Canada ( #SCC ) — #BeaverLakeCree Nation will now receive $1.5 million annually from Alberta to continue their Treaty rights case!

    The decision for a yearly contribution is a welcome relief, allowing the Beaver Lake #Cree Nation to move their case forwards while managing costs across their community needs.

    Read more about the ACO in this blog :

    Attend a #webinar featuring Crystal Lamemen, Beaver Lake Cree member, and Karey Brooks, their lead #lawyer on September 24 to find out more about what this all means and what comes next for the #Treaty6 #litigation :

  10. An account on #X w/the handle #SheriffLeaf sent out links to the #Dominion emails, which were marked "confidential."…

    However, for yrs, #DarLeaf has *investigated* the 2020 presidential election & worked w/Stefanie Lambert, a #Michigan #lawyer who's now representing #PatrickByrne, fmr CEO of #Overstock. Dominion, whose #election equipment is used in most MI counties, is suing Byrne for #defamation after he spread #ConspiracyTheories their tech.

  11. #Trump #lawyer John Lauro, in arguing that he needs 2 years to prepare for the DC #federal #charges against his client, said there are 250 potential govt #witnesses “and counting” so far.
    #Lauro noted that figure doesn’t incl any potential #defense witnesses, & efforts by Trump’s legal team to conduct their own investigation.

  12. #Lauro argued that he needed ample time to review the #evidence & prepare a #defense for #Trump.
    
“This man’s liberty & life is at stake & he deserves an adequate representation,” Lauro said. “As an experienced defense #lawyer, we cannot do this in the time frame that the government has outlined.”
    #Chutkan replied: “I understand, Mr. Lauro but you are not going to get two more years. This case is not going to trial in 2026.”

  13. John Lauro, #attorney for #Trump, blasted the federal #prosecutors’ arguments for an earlier #TrialDate in DC as “absurd” & “unfair”.
    
“This is a request for a show trial, not a speedy trial. I’m sorry, your honor; for a federal prosecutor to suggest that we could go on trial in 4 months is not only absurd, it’s a violation of the oath to do justice” #Lauro fumed.

    As Lauro’s voice rose, Judge Tanya #Chutkan sought to calm him. “Let’s take the temperature down,” she twice advised the #lawyer.
