FREE AGAIN! Jan 31, '08 12:09 PM
for everyone
So that so many questions won't be asked, I'd like to confirm that, yes, I have left the government.
While there were so many reasons to leave, I finally decided to go on a matter of principle as some justices of the Supreme Court apparently have a different point of view of a certain piece of the law.
Before this turns into a scathing attack, allow me to end by saying THAT BASIC LAW IS SOMETHING YOU CAN STATE CLEARLY. Where there is no rule to deal with a specific situation, how can there be basic law?
Among those who agree that the way I handled a case was the ONLY LOGICAL thing to do UNDER THE RULES:
1. A former Supreme Court justice whose duties require him to be throughly familiar with the rule involved.
2. A senior Cout of Appeals justice who is known for his intelligence and integrity.
3. A Regional Trial Judge who has long been teaching Remedial Law and is considered an authority on it.
At least I can tell the difference between an ordinary civil action and a special proceeding.
There are advantages to being in the private sector though:
1. I can party hard again (as if I ever did, okay, party mild, but hard if I want to.)!
2. I can visit the casino again.
3. No one will raise eyebrows if I cruise the town at night.
4. I can pay attention to some businesses I've neglected while in the government.
Most of all, I get to spend more time with my daughter.
