Palm Beach County Judge Barry Cohen follows the law even when he disagrees with it. He is a good judge because of that.<br /><br />What makes Judge Cohen a great judge is his calm demeanor with defendants, assistant state attorneys, public defenders, private attorneys, victims and witnesses. His trials are fair. He finds for the state in some cases, and for the defense in others. He has been a prosecutor and defense lawyer, which has given him a broad perspective of the law. He has compassion, and expresses it when appropriate. He is not a machine, and does not prejudge cases.<br /><br />I have lost and won matters before Judge Cohen, and I always thought I got a fair shake either way. I believe most lawyers feel that way about him. Judge Cohen should not recuse himself from criminal cases for his views. If that were the case, every conservative judge would be subject to recusal as well. Luckily for Palm Beach County, our judges all attempt to follow the law. Statistically, they usually are right, but when they are wrong, the appellate courts can reverse the error.<br /><br />While our names our similar, Judge Cohen and I are not related, except maybe two or three thousand years ago in ancient Israel.<br /><br />MICHAEL. L. COHEN<br /><br />West Palm Beach<br /><br />And now interim State Attorney Peter Antonacci shows his true colors, by trying to muzzle County Judge Barry Cohen. Mr. Antonacci was sent down here by the governor - the same guy whose company committed Medicare fraud - to get this county straightened up. Can it get even more corrupt?<br /><br />MIKE WHELAN<br /><br />Jupiter<br /><br />Judicial recourse limited; citizens must get involved<br /><br />First, Palm Beach County Circuit Judge Krista Marx is threatened with ethics accusations that should be brought now, if true, not if she had run for state attorney. Now we have an attack on County Judge Barry Cohen by a Gov. Scott appointee (interim State Attorney Peter Antonacci) for speaking out on occasion about the effective injustices in our system.<br /><br />Scaled-down Gingrich plan<br /><br />The motion by interim Palm Beach County State Attorney Peter Antonacci to remove County Judge Barry Cohen from presiding over a murder case because of his criticism of the judicial system is an attempt by Mr. Antonacci and Gov. Scott, who appointed Mr. Antonacci, to test the tea party waters. The motion is a scaled-down version of Newt Gingrich's plan to have federal marshals arrest and jail judges whose rulings and opinions are contrary to conservative ideology. This is a prime example of that "slippery slope" everyone always talks about. If Mr. Antonacci is successful, I ask, "What's next?"<br /><br />ROBERT KING<br /><br />Delray Beach<br /><br />Upholding both sides of law rare feat in Palm Beach County<br /><br /><br /><br />WellingtonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-18539974534202753552012-06-13T14:38:08.766-04:002012-06-13T14:38:08.766-04:00Are you a racist? - if you work in the criminal ju...Are you a racist? - if you work in the criminal justice system and are not trying to fix the glaring problems of selective enforcement and double standards of justice, you just might be. But heck, don't beat yourself up. Everybody needs a job, right? And who cares if future generations throw around words like "barbaric" and "senseless" when discussing our prevailing failed drug policy?<br /><br />Now that the preamble is out of the way, check out today's Palm Beach Post article about Barry Cohen, if you haven't seen it already. The Fifteenth Circuit's pretend interim State Attorney is trying to get Cohen booted off all criminal cases, for daring to state the obvious while still wearing his robe.<br /><br />Here's a sample of what the PB SAO finds so offensive, followed by a great retort in defense of Cohen by Gary Farmer: <br /><br />"There is something very wrong in a criminal justice system and every day I look (at defendants) and see faces of young African-Americans and they have two things in common: their race and their lack of money," (Cohen) is quoted as saying during a hearing in a 2004 misdemeanor case. "I don't mind that the fact I am saying this in a public courtroom to be noted by anybody. And I am not afraid to be an activist judge. Our system is totally out of kilter." ...<br /><br />"I think it's a bunch of hooey," (Farmer) said (about the Disqualification Motion). "The state of Florida is saying it fears the outcome of justice in one of its courts? It's utter nonsense."<br /><br />Make sure to read the whole article, and then ask why no one can remember a Broward jurist publicly taking exception to the issues presented, in a county where African-Americans have traditionally been sent off to prison at twice the rate per capita of Palm Beach and Miami-Dade ...<br /><br />See Also - Verified Motion For Disqualification (PDF); Wrong fight, wrong judge; Scary silence on threat to Palm Beach County justice system.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-10217606107375216142012-06-13T11:50:02.177-04:002012-06-13T11:50:02.177-04:00Love makes the world go round.

I worked my butt off in her case because she was so hot and I figured she was worth saving. She turned 18 while in the program and when she got out she looked me up. We went out for dinner at Burger King and ended up at a motel in Okeechobee Road where we spent a wild night between the bed and the jacuzzi. That was 2 months ago and we are going to get married next week. One of my buddies who does family law is drafting the prenup for me. We kind of look like the odd couple because she has tattoos, wears gold grills and talks ghetto but she's really hot in bed and very wild so I really love her. My friends ask what is a respectable, divorced, successful lawyer like me doing with such a young chick but I've never been happier in my entire life and I'm not going back to Milf's, or whatever my ex-wife and her friends are called nowadays.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-40223545371119807952012-06-12T17:58:44.785-04:002012-06-12T17:58:44.785-04:00Rumpole, your first paragraph talked about protect...Rumpole, your first paragraph talked about protecting ourselves if Greece sank the European Union.<br /><br />How do I prepare myself?<br /><br />What should I be doing?<br /><br />Will putting masking tape over the windows in big XXX's help?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-63662855969244287352012-06-12T17:50:16.305-04:002012-06-12T17:50:16.305-04:00Guys, while you were sitting in your office wonder...Guys, while you were sitting in your office wondering about who will sign up for "the list", looking at porn on your computer, wondering if the foreign law student is really a tranny, or otherwise scratching yourselves, I was at the country club pool chatting up your wives and / or girlfriends. <br /><br />It isn't only the pool where I chat up your wives and / or girlfriends: I chat them up at school after car pool, getting a coffee near the school, or even at their cars after the kids are dropped off in the morning.

I...The 60's were turbulent times for America. In 1968 we lost Martin Luther King and Bobby Kennedy. The courage these individuals exhibited is virtually extinct in our “politically correct” environment. “Politically correct” connotes lack of courage, weakness of principle, and absence of conviction. Lawyers can make a difference in justice system. Many disparage our profession. We often invite the criticism. We frequently coward, bury our heads as ostriches, avoiding controversy, criticism from colleagues or jurists in the face of injustice. We have done nothing about the practice of the State moving to discharge the Public Defender in County Court? To see a pro-se defendant summarily convicted or adjudicated contributes to the negative perception of our profession. <br /><br />As a kid who grew up witnessing the mistreatment of minorities at every level of government, including law enforcement and the judicial system, I have never shied away from an engagement, regardless of popularity. I have paid a price at times; the price was and is well worth it! I have a disdain for abusive or arbitrary exercise of power, particularly by those entrusted to protect the rights of the weak. I know all too well the consequences of silence in the face of abuse; silence only bring temporary comfort, avoids the inevitable, and emboldens the bully. <br /><br />Only if enough lawyers subscribe to this sub-standard system of justice will this absurd diminution of representation succeed. I call it diminution because at the rate they are purporting to pay you cannot afford to try a case, these will be pleas of conveyance, camouflaged by meager representation. <br /><br />I came to admire Bobby Kennedy. I offer his thoughts and words for your reflection: <br /><br />“Every time we turn our heads the other way when we see the law flouted, when we tolerate what we know to be wrong, when we close our eyes and ears to the corrupt because we are too busy or too frightened, when we fail to speak up and speak out, we strike a blow against freedom and decency and justice.”<br /><br />“Few are willing to brave the disapproval of their peers, the censure of their colleagues, the wrath of their society. Moral courage is a rarer commodity than bravery in battle or great intelligence. Yet it is the one essential, vital quality for those who seek to change a world that yields most painfully to change.”Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-67170814774968195432012-06-12T06:52:11.261-04:002012-06-12T06:52:11.261-04:00In an article in today's Herald About Bath Sal...In an article in today's Herald About Bath Salts and my former client Rudy Eugene, <br />The Doctor said:<br /><br />Patricia Junquera, assistant professor of psychiatry and the medical director of the detoxification unit at the University of Miami, said that she has seen a large increase of problems with synthetic drugs in the emergency room at Jackson Memorial Hospital.<br /><br />“We’re seeing this type of behavior more and more,” she said. “And with younger and younger patients.”<br /><br />In Junquera’s opinion, the effects of synthetic marijuana are worse than those of real marijuana, even though the synthetic substance is legal. Patients come to her hallucinating, breaking things and screaming.<br /><br />“They become psychotic,” she said. “Some of them have seizures or are paralyzed. That doesn’t happen with normal marijuana.” <br /><br />I think Rudy's behavior is better seen from the below definition from wikipedia <br /><br /><br />Schizophrenia (/ˌskɪtsɵˈfrɛniə/ or /ˌskɪtsɵˈfriːniə/) is a mental disorder characterized by a breakdown of thought processes and by poor emotional responsiveness.[1] It most commonly manifests itself as auditory hallucinations, paranoid or bizarre delusions, or disorganized speech and thinking, and it is accompanied by significant social or occupational dysfunctionDSnoreply@blogger.com
