Lawyer Terrorized & Abandoned Because he was Doing What Society had Assigned Him to do

by | 10.10.2008

Almost everyone likes to blame their lawyer if things don't go their way. However a lawyer is never supposed to disobey a judge, and if a lawyer objects too much it can irritate a judge which could harm their client's case. A very few like Linn Steward do defy the judge and pay the price. She is still facing a long jail term.

Somewhat similer saga,

Tony Jackson, Mumia Abu Jamal's lawyer, was only doing what almost every other lawyer would have done, refused to quit defending Mumia because the judge wouldn't let him.
