In the context of banking, I would call it at least a dirty-trick. If you're saying "How can you pay a lawyer if you cannot...speak???", then you're not the go

In the context of banking, I would call it at least a dirty-trick. If you're saying "How can you pay a lawyer if you cannot...speak???", then you're not the good-guy.
- quesera 4y agoThe contextual assertion is that the frozen funds were obtained by non-lawful process. Allowing access to those funds for your defense is not automatic. Sometimes a judge will partially ease restrictions. And of course a lawyer will be provided for you. :-/ It's reasonable on the surface of things, but mistakes can be devastating. The US legal system often fails to handle the "mistake" case well, despite some intended protections.
- mbg721 4y agoThe US legal system doesn't care very much if it's those specific dollars or other dollars that have a dirty history. If, God forbid, I'm ever arrested for something, I don't trust those "intended protections" very much.
