HRm. Well that's interesting but good luck. As Governor I would think he'd have a conflict of interest.

- jessaustin 10y agoI think that's up to the discretion of the trial judge? In many cases you'd expect trial judges to defer to the governor's wishes because corruption. However, the judges around here are always complaining that the courts don't get enough money, so they might have sympathy for the PD. Also, one would expect some of them are at least slightly in favor of justice, so it has to stick in their craw a bit when they see all the poor folks getting the five-minute-plea-bargain treatment.
