Speaking of Lawyer Ethics…

Seems a bunch of lawyers had a problem that I suggested there should be a higher set of ethical standard than zealous advocating a client’s interests…

Then something like this happens. Still think it wasn’t about money?

Judge Greer gets Judge of the Year, Michael Schiavo gets Guardian of the Year… all of this is nothing but the right to kill crowd trying to rub it in the face of the pro-lifers that they won.

Neener neener neener.

    1. Michael Schiavo did nothing wrong. But perception is reality. So, that’s that I guess.

      RESPONSE:

      If you don’t consider starving his wife to death wrong, sure. If you don’t consider capitalizing on his wife’s misfortunes even AFTER he was engaged to someone else wrong, sure. Now that she’s dead, he wants even more money for his “loss” even as he’s already making wedding plans.

    2. Of course it was about money. (Well…money for the “husband”, and politics for everybody else.) But that’s about Michael Schiavo, not about legal ethics. Last I checked, MS wasn’t a lawyer.

      RESPONSE:

      But a lawyer is representing him. No lawyer is required to take his cases.
