Ksalol 2mg-
#71
well, i just read the presentation of another attorney and counselor at law, in my humble opinion.

u write amazingly.

get exposure. be awesome in a court room if you have it in you. i think u do. u have the presentation and writing down, counselor.

well, i am very sorry things r turning out to be tougher than u expected. there are foodbanks at methodist churches on saturdays. do foodstamps. and, i have been an attorney for many a year.

it is rough out there for attorneys. NY, my state, was the first one in 2008 to announce to those graduating law school in NYC, they would have to agree to not work for a year and get paid fifteen thousand as part of a bar passing agreement. it still sux in NY.

You will be awesome. You just amazed me. You took control of the room. Maintained your point in a well spoken manner.

well done, counselor.

(ok, this is secret, but one attorney calls another attorney that he hates: my learned colleague. it can drive ur opponent to fury in the courtroom. use that knowledge. i would mispronounce my late husbands attorney's name during our divorce and he got in trouble by the judge all the time by becoming livid. both of them. violated every court order. sighs. corruption reigns.)

u have the fight. the honor. u still believe in doing the right thing. awesome we have new attorneys such as you coming up.

if u would like to redact any of your info, just let me know.

i swear i am very impressed by your brief, as it were. brief, concise and to the point. u will ace your bar exams. NY is the toughest. followed by CA. i just did NY. passed first time.



re group. u have the perfect attitude. someday, i kid ye not, u will miss the fun of taking the bar exams. your mind is at its finest, i felt.

so good to hear from u.

Aww, Charon, thanks, encouragement is nice, the wait is definitely the worst part, also they don't have a firm date, only a "kind of" range. I think I just miss going to court for anything. Big firms are nice and cushiony - long hours but you know, clients, they send you out in the field, but I'd rather do trialwork because when I did that before it was pretty great, although family law seems pretty gnarly.

And yeah, haha, if you don't like the other side it gets real good when you bait them into something. One summer when I was actually getting paid, criminal trial, voir dire, half-Hispanic client with clearly Hispanic name. I had spreadsheeted the juror questionnaires the night before so it was in front of me, but other side didn't bring a laptop, so we figure we're ahead, and really if you have an extra person it helps a lot to just mark as many data points as possible anyway. But so we get to preempts and there was a juror who we knew, from the questionnaire, that she's from Spain, and had an accent, but since we had it down already we just asked where she's from and just went over some of the questionnaire, and moved on. Then we look at the spreadsheet and realized that 3/4 Hispanics in the pool have been stricken and she's the last one standing and the other side struck the other two. We both had 5 preempts so we got two left and we figured that he was gonna try to keep the lady who said she's married to a cop but can still be neutral, two seats down, so we struck the person between them, someone whom we could hve had on the jury and would've been good, but no big deal, and the DA jumped at it and struck the Spanish lady from the pool and took about a second for all 5 at the counsel tables and the judge to know and it was a matter of how quickly we can blurt out "Objection, Batson, systematic pattern of discrimination, counsel had struck the entire Hispanic venir and the counsel table here has more minorities than the jury pool period."

Oh boy, it felt like minutes and his rebuttal was "well I didn't think Spanish people, she's from Spain, yes? Yes, Spanish people, they're European, on the checklist she checked white under race, she speaks English quite well, I struck her because she didn't seem to quite... follow the questioning (all 2 questions) as well as I'd liked, but definitely I didn't think she's Hispanic, and even if she is, if you classify her as that, I'd say that to me she's a white European naturalized American member of our community." Like you  can just see him realizing that every word he thought of, which already took ages, was going in the wrong direction, and he had to stick to his guns.

You can't really just turn around and look at the judge at that moment and you can't laugh but I think everyone but the prosecutor including most of the pool was gonna crack up, and then the judge, I can almost hear his eyeroll, just went:

"Counsel, for the record Spanish people are Hispanic, but while ignorant your answer is believable in the context, and I hope I won't hear this answer again in my courtroom. The bar for a Batson challenge is not ignorance, but plausibility and believability, and unfortunately it hits that very low bar, it's does not take a stretch of the imagination to believe that some people, even you, counsel, who'd make the mistaken distinction. Overruled, you may go ma'am."

You can't laugh but then the jruy did it was pretty difficult. If we lost that would have been one helluva appellate decision addressing the prosecution's lack of recognition that Spanish people are Hispanic - ignorant or lying, essentially - but we got a mistrial so didn't have the chance, but man, when you got a jury pool with very few minorities with a minority client (happened too many times, law school was in a place where it is still possible to have all white juries, or close to it, but plenty of minroity defendants), the few trials I've done solo and the few I did with a supervisor, we definitely went for the Batson just to see what kind of crazy reason they'd come up with, but that one really beat all others.

There are those who work across the street I watch baseball and drink beers with after work even though they work for the other side, and then there are those who we warn our clients about actually taking the first plea because it's the only plea they're gonna get. Didn't think it'd actually work, but I guess if you lose your concentration at the end of a long day of jury selections you may just go for ignorant rather than lying.

Maybe I should just sit through a few dockets next week, get to know some people, whatever it is, even if I got guilty verdicts or pleas on most cases I helped to work on or worked on solo, you know you have a problem when you spent so much time in court during law school that not going to court messes with you (although the jail smelled weird and I don't miss that).

I apologize Acmilan171, but I believe Dusko's email is in the Senior's section. Perhaps Dusko prefers it this way for a reason, don't know. Either way you will probably have to have a senior you know that will PM you or have to wait until you have access to that section. Thanks

I used dusko a long time ago and it was A+, I e-mailed the same address and no response. Oh well. I made the mistake of using Pink as a result. Now I'm expecting my first experience of getting burned by a vendor.

we do not discuss our email vendors with such specificity in open threads.

Please get ur fifty posts in.

Our email vendors, with their info, are in a private area requiring fifty posts.

Duskos word is bond! Hope all is well with D!
1mg ksalols are just fine. Take 2 if you need. Enough with the bar obsession.

Naw there is only 1 mg ksalols. The guy from com whose name was a color was the best for them.
But he is a bad boy now I hear. Cool

Dusko is fabulous.

2mg are fakes.

If this vendor email addy is in the senior section I will not list it here other than to say that this vendor replies more to the gmail addy currently.

D is a good vendor. (Not shilling, just my experience in the past was very good and I don't know of anyone that would complain, unless it's a reverse shill...)

That said, hope everyone is well and happy.

Best wishes. CL
