Crime & Federalism

They're out there, all right. Angry eyes. Looking for a fight. Finding offense everywhere. And they are looking for you.

These posts yield unusual correspondence. The other day, a newspaper called to ask for permission to run an old item. I granted permission, and now my email box is replete with messages from new readers, in this instance members of the plaintiff's bar, not at all happy that I wrote about my sense that not all cases have merit.

But the oddest emails come from potential clients. Some folks use the blog as an entry as they pitch their case.

Sometimes current clients read the blog. Most say they like it, but not all.  Why just the other day, a client wrote to complain that I hadn't responded to a letter quickly enough. Perhaps, it was suggested, I was spending too much time writing "unsolicited" blogs.

Thanks to one and all for reading.
