Trying to find a parking space in the county garage on Astros opening day when it’s raining is like my favorite thing ever.

Me: Is there any discovery available at all on this new case? Offense report? Anything? Prosecutor: No, but here’s your plea offer.

Here’s a new fun phenomenon for criminal defense attorneys: Potential client wants to hire you to do something for them like an expunction, early termination, etc. You tell them they aren’t legally entitled to it. Client bombards you with vague AI articles to the contrary.

A danger of being a criminal defense attorney is ultimately being inescapably tied to a client’s life and actions. Learned this the hard way buying trial clothes for a plus sized client and now I can’t get off of a Big & Tall store email list.

Me (texting client): the prosecutor says they will offer you time served on a misdemeanor. Client: how you know all this? Me: um, I’m your lawyer and I just talked to prosecutor?

You might be getting old if your client calls for a case update and then you spend thirty minutes comparing what diabetes medicine the two of you are both on.

So is Kim Ogg just finally making her switch back to the Rs official or is she trying to line up an advanced pardon for that whole illegal disclosure of confidential information thing?

Any politician backing Kim Ogg for US Attorney for the Southern District better hope and pray that a mild breeze doesn’t happen to change her loyalty and affiliation for her political self-promotion yet again. The Politics of Ogg will always win out over other party lines.
