NEW POLLS

NEW POLLS ARE UP. Check em out.

Have a good idea for a poll? Email us.

Sorry to say no one took us up on our offer and emailed us a story about what they do.

Someone wants to know why there is no blog for North of the Border.

Probably a second degree felony up there.
Can’t have free speech or free expression of ideas.
Might upset the apple cart.


One year anniversary of the blog is coming up. Do we hear the call for another blog party at Tobacco Road?

See You In Court Monday.


( Have we upset the Pastelito cart?)

  2. ALL THINGS BEING EVEN

    I'd take Willie Randolph over Joe Torre as my manger. But Jim Leyland over the both of them.

    I'd want Larry Coker runing my football program, not Urban Meyer.

    I can name you 12- a dozen- that's right 12- head coaches in the NFL who are better than Nick Saban.

    I'd buy another LCD TV before I'd buy another Plasma. And as a rich defense attorney, I have both.

    I'd date a woman in her 20's or a woman in her 40's. These 30 year olds who have baby fever are drivin me nuts.

    "Why is there no blog North of the Border: 1) The Water 2) The Judges would hunt the blogger down, strip him/her, and hang them from the top of the courthouse; 3) No one up there has a creative bone in their body. 4) (sealed by order of the court)."

    whats happened to #5) Blogger has no time to make creative post since standing in line for Sounding can take 2-3 months (4-6 months if the judge learns your a Miami Attorney).

  10. Rumpole,
    Can you really be surprised that no one described what they really do?

    Why would I let anyone into the recesses of my soul? Do I go about my tasks blithly oblivious to their effect, or do I live in a tortured purgatory of psychic pain?

    Capital prosecution is not an unexamined life. It just cannot be shared.

  11. 10:13:49 PM, have you even spoken to David Markus the “uncool” federal guy? I would suspect that you have not, because if you had, you would find that he is a generous, intelligent and kind person. Why is there so much envy and jealousy in our profession? There probably isn’t a harder working defense attorney/advocate in the United States than David Markus—“uncool” though he may be. Seriously, try speaking with David and your opinion just might change—or heaven forbid you might just develop a real basis upon which to formulate an honest opinion.

  14. I won a half dozen trials by age 35 so now I have my own blog and claim to be the best attorney in town-better than people who have 20 more years of accomplishments. name me.

  15. David Markus won way more than a half a dozen trials before 35, and he has his own blog because he went to blogspot.com and created one. He's never claimed to be the best attorney in town.

    Go kill yourself, you irrelevant hack.

    No, I'm not david

  16. Whoever is taking cheap shots at David O. Markus is sorely mistaken. First off, David can speak with authority about the law because he is one of the most learned, and at his age, one of the best and most experienced criminal trial lawyers in this town. He is not an ego...he is simply that good.

  19. Definition of a Great Attorney in Criminal Law: Has tried misdemeanor, juvenile, felony cases. Files motions, not boilerplate- one that require research, writing and case law. Has practiced in different jurisdictions and judges and maybe even federal and state simultaneously. Has made law through appeals, appellate decisions, changes in statutes. I believe we can thank Roy Black's use of the intoxication defense in a murder trial on court tv for the subsequent abrogation of it and he didn't even win that case. That is an example of greatness. For all of you who have one big case under your belt until you have had to deal with 10 media organizations covering your every move, represented cases that were so controversial that you received death threats or had to have a change of venue, had your case lead to a change in statutes, rules of criminal procedure, a change in the death penalty or your reputation is such that you are FEARED then you are still nothing more than good, very good or above average and nobody is one of the best attorneys in Miami when they have been a lawyer less than 10 years. It takes almost that long to trial and have the appeals exhausted in a 1st degree murder case. And if all you've done is win most of your trials as an asa you ain't shit because successfully defending compared to successful prosecution is like comparing the nfl to college only none of you asas realize this until you leave the sao and then defend people.

  20. ...and Ball State can beat the 1966 Packers. Keep dreaming + make sure to send commisary money to your clients in Raiford

  21. To random asa: how many times have you nolle prossed, reduced felony to mm, gone way below guidelines etc. the minute you were no longer guaranteed victory and had the slightest problem with your case because that's the way 98% of prosecutors prosecute.

  23. Money lending expert Ronald Bamberg, who gave evidence on behalf of London North Securities, said: "I agree it has got to an enormous figure but that is simply the mathematics of it."
    He added that Harvey Collis, director of London North Securities, who has taken the court action against Meadows, had done nothing wrong.
