wake up. it's time to propose a BLOGGER BREAKOUT for the 2010 Dependency Summit. I'm trying to make it somewhat official and have an expert on 1st Amendment and whistle-blowing on the panel. I've got to find that person.

are you in?

The 3rd DCA recently disagreed with the 5th DCA and found an indigent non-offending parent is entitled to appointed counsel. Thomas Butler, Esq. represented the Petitioner W.G. on appeal in the 3rd DCA.

Huh??? I finally found this blog, and now IC it's been years since you've posted?!?!?! Holy cow, batman! OK, so there's little money in the field, and no glory (well, save for the David and Goliath thing - isn't that enough?) We all have to have some purpose in life, and what better than civil liberties against the man?????
