Date: August 3rd, 2024 5:59 PM Author: Stimulating Salmon Pozpig Telephone I was clerking for a federal judge when Gerry Spence had a case before another judge at the court. I got to observe him during several hearings and I sat close enough to hear him talking to his clients. He was very strange. At one point he told his clients not to sit next to each other so the feds didn’t tack on a conspiracy charge. He had a smile on his face but he was dead serious. His clients moved away from each other after he said that. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5569364&forum_id=2Reputation#47925291) |
