I was in something of a hurry, so perhaps I over-nutshelled.
I haven't read the full decision, so I will, and will likely be informed. I also don't claim superior legal knowledge, though I am studying for the bar, but that is despite not having a juris doctorate, so there are large gaps in my knowledge, especially in crim.
I could cite more examples, though perhaps the Mehenna case will be the best example of the ones cited anyway.
Regardless, thanks for the corrections. I'll look into them.
- anigbrowl 13y agoYou're welcome, and I should probably know more about the Mehenna case. I wish I was still studying for the bar, I can't afford law school. :-/ Believe it or not I'm more drawn to defense work.
- bmelton 13y agoI could probably afford law school at a crappy college, but I'm attempting to pass the bar without law school or even a college education, so conversations like this are truly informative to me. I've been studying law for some time, but it only recently occurred to me that I should even attempt the bar, at some point in the future. A friend of mine keeps telling me I should blog about it, which I've agreed is a good idea to cement my findings, but I'm debating whether or not anyone would care about a random asshole trying to pass the bar enough to make the blog public. Here's[1] some aggregated info on Mehanna, and also his wikipedia entry[2], and ACLU's[3] recap.
