GRIECO BAN???

Actually, we don’t ban anyone or any topic. However, we join in with the chorus of views that the Grieco/Davidoff chat is , to quote one of our favorite readers: “zzzzzzzzzz.”
Rumpole makes a plea: can’t some Judge, somewhere, issue some stupid ruling so we can switch to another topic? We are not going to publicize it, but it is true, because we have seen it with our own airport bleary eyes, that there is a Grieco blog. No comments or readers. But it exists. Also, our favorite federal Blogger David Markus weighed in with a few choice comments.

CAMPAIGN UPDATE:

Captain of the Election ship hoists anchor and writes:


In Circuit Court Group 25,Judge Murphy is looking good and challenger Josie Velis is on life support:In the January 1 - March 31 reporting period,
Judge Murphy reports:$36,565 raised from 156 contributors.
Challenger Velis reports:$7,370 raised from 24 contributors.

In Circuit Court Group 42,Judge Lawrence Schwartz widens his lead over challenger Gina Mendez in the area of contributions:In the January 1 - March 31 reporting period,
Judge Schwartz reports:$33,425 raised from 151 contributors.
Challenger Mendez reports:$12,975 raised from 64 contributors.


JASON GREY LOGS OFF????

In reply to a comment, Jason Grey, an original member of the “not afraid to sign my name club” writes:

I’m not dumb, I make way more money than you, and I can kick your ass. Enough of this shit I'm done. I shall blog no more forever.

Rumpole responds that its always sad to lose a reader and contributor. However, this blog can get rough. Mr. Grey can always write in anonymously. However, if any reader wants to use the “search this blog” feature at the top and search for “Grey” you will see that Mr. Grey quickly got the spirit of this blog. His comments were always thoughtful and on topic and produced excellent discussions of interesting issues. We are sorry to see him go, and hope he changes his mind.

ED CARHART

While we were away, some comments about the Grieco/DJ/Redskins case involved Ed Carhart. Here is what 99% of you REGJB regulars who first walked into the Justice Building some time during the 1990’s do not know: Ed Carhart is one of the finest attorneys in the United States. He is a master at cross examination, and has handled some of the biggest cases in Miami. Do not let his chronic illness which has confined him to a wheel chair confuse you. Prosecutors underestimate him at their own peril. Those people whose ability to write posts are limited to strings of four letter words would do better to write less, and go in court and watch Mr. Carhart try that case. We understand Sean Taylor has several attorneys, but if those lawyers want to win, they should stay seated and let Mr. Carhart do his thing.


TWO NEW JUDGES GET SOME PROPS

A reader writes:

two new judges that treat people fairly and with respect should be noted. Schlesinger & Butchko


A Reader likes lists:

Let's make a list:

Lawyers who refuse to speak to anyone in the courthouse and hence NOT nice:
Defense lawyers who are NOT NICE
Phil Reizenstein
Jose Elortiqui
Jonathan Schwartz
Alex Michaels
Jay White

ASA'S WHO ARE NOT NICE:
Abe Laeser
Gail Levine
Josh Weintraub
Deisy "Komisar of Kounty Kourt" Rodriquez
Sally Weintraub
Jon Granoff

Judges WHO ARE NOT NICE:
Leifman; Lindsey; McWhorter; Glick; Jackie Scola; Tunis; Lederman; Ward; Echarte; Emas; Bagley. [Rumpole notes that if you ever want to chat with Judge Echarte, just find him outside with his cigar. He almost got arrested for loitering and prowling because of the time he spends out there.]

Lawyer who always say hello and hence ARE nice:
Defense lawyers who are NICE:
Hersch; Rabin ;Grey, his good looking partner; Tannebaum;
All of the ticket lawyers ; Half the PD's office ;Ken Hassett;

ASA'S WHO ARE NICE: Bill Howell; Richard Scruggs; Abie Rifkin; Mike the DJ Greico; Bill McGee; Kathy Rundle herself.. the ONE time she actually showed up in a courtroom....Bennett Brummer... himself.. the ONE time he actually showed up in a courtroom...

Judges WHO ARE NICE:
Krieger-Martin; MJ Francis;Newman;Peterson;Slom;Adrien;
Blake (best jokes too);Firtel;Jimenez;Piniero;Reyes;Soto;Young;Lopez;
Crespo and Leyte (in memory)
Rosinek; Trawick;Zabel;Silverman.


Rumpole says: hmmm….lots of fodder and grist for the mill. (we edited one listing of an ASA because it had a gratuitous comment in the form of a nickname that was just mean. We like nicknames, but the reader should think of something better than the one they used. The comment in its original form is still in the comments section.)

Which half of the PD's office is nice? The lawyers who go to court or the lawyers who stay in the office, munch donuts, and tell the lawyers who go to court what to say and how to say it?


Seriously, if this Grieco thing does not die down, we’re going to pour water over someone’s head in court, just to generate a new controversy and change the topic. It's not that the list idea was overpoweringly interesting, but just that it might change the topic from "Davidoff/Grieco/I know not what I speak o"

See You In Court. We’re the one’s holding the water pitcher in a menacing manner.

Dear Bloggers,

I don't think we've met in person, my name is Anonymous. Sometimes, I make a single innocent post and see what happens. Sometimes I post, then I immediately post responses to myself to make it seem like there are many like me. Sometimes, I even use my "real" name, then I anonymously support myself. I cast aspersions on judges, defense attorneys, and prosecutors indiscriminately and at will with no concern for the facts, their careers, or the emotional impact I may have. My possession of testicles is questionable and would be disbarred/sued if identifiable. Maybe I should be banned, it sounds like I am the problem. I need a hobby and I wish I didn't get beat up so much in high school. I am voting MYSELF off the island.

Hey, to the maker of the "list".. I'm a defense atty and I'm nice!! AND I'm there everyday AND I'm pretty hard to miss (given my bulk)

I say hello to all.. try to be friendly and respectful.. I realize I'm "calorically challenged" and of course there's that "gay" thing... but I've never made a secret about either!!! I"m NICE DAMMIT!! JEEZ Does one have to be "handsome" to be nice???
Oh well.. I'll still be nice because being hateful just hurts me.. I wish more folks would underatand that!

Your question mark speaks volumes.. Was I unclear? I'm just having fun with this blog... I'm not going nuts over nonsense and I'm not looking to argue with my collegues over nonsense.. I'm just enjoying it.. I was being facetious when I complained about not being on the "list".. I was SERIOUS when I said that being "hateful" or mean or insulting or derogatory.. just hurts the person who harbors those feelings.. I've been at this a long time and I believe in zealously representing my clients.. I also believe that if I harbor resentments and constantly look for flaws in people that I will wind up making MYSELF miserable.. the people I'm bitching about could probably care less.. Look, I feel fortunate everyday to have a job I love and a life I never thought was possible.. What the hell do I care about who likes whom etc.. I enjoy the blog It was a good idea. It's entertaining and unique to those of us who work in REG each day.. a place to let off steam or show support etc.. If anyone takes it more seriously than that..well..whatever. I certainly won't lose any sleep over it. For the most part I like the people I work with and enjoy what I do.. I think a lot of us do, or we wouldn't still be doing it. My best to ALL of you!

apparently warren is one of the smarter guys around. this could be a great blog if we use it like educated people are capable of. here's to a fresh start of the blog. i suggest a trial board to recognize defense attorneys going to trial and getting acquittals, and asa's going to trial and obtaining convictions.

some critique is fine, but lets not destroy people.

That loitering and prowling comment was hilarious! On that tip, I saw a PC recently where the cop wrote that my client was hanging out in front of a business "in a manner not unusual for lawabiding people." I don't know if he would ever get how wrong that sentence was. Heck, I saw a traffic ticket where the cop actually wrote in "pretextual stop." Geez, I know it is legal, but WTF!

You are wrong about Emas, he is a real gentleman, smart and probably (along with Bob Scola)the most prepared Judge on the bench. I know he made me a better lawyer. He refuses to treat cases as "just another case". He expects lawyers to be prepared and if they are they will appreciate how exceptional a judge he is.

changing the topic...let's talk about the Murphy v. Velis Race. Judge Murphy is a great guy and a fine attorney and even by far one of the best judges we have. Why would Josie pick on him? We may never know. She has an attitude and she seems like a two face. I think she will make a terrible judge. Ladies and Gents, let's support JUDGE MURPHY! Josie darling, you lost 2 years ago, get ready to loose again. You didn't get the hispanics votes last time, and you ain't getting them now....

Rumpole:

Once again this site has turned into a place where people are mostly posting anonymous and often unfounded and downright cruel gripes at those they feel have wronged them (or of whom they are just jeolous of). Sorry, but I think you expected something better; you are, after all, Rumpole of the Old Bailey. You know, the guys who wear wigs and robes while they litigate in their fine Queen's English.

Query: Is it time to pull the plug (or should we just start wearing wigs and robes)?

One Who Won't Be Named To Avoid Attack

Anonymous said...

Velis picked on Murphy likely because she is Hispanic and this is a Hispanic town. Irish guys generally aren't going to win an election. Fact of life is the wrold is terribly racist, and we all know the "educated" masses of miami (or any other city) will simply check the box next to the name of the person who has a similar name.

Murphy is among the finest Judge's in Dade County, and hopefully qualifications will trump names in this election.

cant put my name b/c if i do all thge mature attorneys will berate me instead of reading, and possibly repsonding to my post.

Here is a suggestion: The Blog is a great idea. The past has shown that immature idiots will ruin it. Someone with some internet savvy should open a blog, and you have to log in. Or have a "log in" section of this blog, to filter out the hatred and "douche bag" lines.

Looking forward to all the mature responses to this post. All by anonymous, of course.

PS For those of you who thnk it's "wimpy or faggy" to accentuate the positive in people.. consider that I spent 8 years at the PD's office with two of those being devoted to Capital Cases. I have a trial record I'm proud of and STILL think I have a wonderful job, wonderful life, and wonderful friends.. I'm so sorry if happiness bums you out!
In any event.. the best to ALL as always..
Warren, (Large, Gay, Jovial, Scowler, Mumbler...all around happy guy) I AM curious though,,. if I "mumble" under my breath and YOU know it's about my clients.. I'm a little uncomforrtable with the level of attention you are giving me....... anyway... if I've amused you....so much the better!!!!

what about adding Fingerhut to the nice list, he has got to be one of the best attorneys at REGJB. It seems to me that even the judges have taken a liken to him, he appears to be friends with damn near all of them. Wonder when he will finally become a judge, then we can start a new list of the judges that actually know what the hell thay are doing and don't just side with the state, he has had alot of experience working for both sides, and I must admit my jeolousy for the talent he has with writting all those books and still managing to have time with a gorgeous young knockout I've heard he's rumored to be with . Now if being nice works, I'm starting now!

I was sorry to see that I was labeled the meanest defense attorney in the building. I have written before that I do usually walk around with a frown, but that is just because I am schemeing on how to avoid to going back to the office where my partner (who is also my wife, and thus my boss) loads me down with uncomprehensible drivers license nonsense.

On a serious note, I have worked half my life in the Jutsice Building and made some life long friends. I am proud to have been asked on occassion to help fellow lawyers (defense and state) when trouble came their way. I have always done that for free. I also am proud of the fact that in almost every trial I have had, win or lose, I have come out of the trial with a friend on the other side. For the lawyer who thought I was mean because I don't speak to people, please know I am sorry you have that impression, and that if you ever needed help or advice (especially on how to look busy and avoid work) I would be happy to help.
