Irony

I have a trial set tomorrow for a hispanic guy that has been in immigration custody for 60 days now. We tried to enter a plea about a month ago, but we tried to do it in a way that wouldn't hurt him on the immigration side. The Judge wouldn't accept the plea because the State's recommendation was too lenient.

Well, the trial is set for tomorrow and, as of Friday, the State hasn't located their victim. This case should be going away tomorrow.

I don't know what is going to happen with the immigration proceedings. I can see how their would be economies in the P.D. representing clients in immigration proceedings, as well. However, that kind of thing is outside of what the county commissioners will let us do.
