Dire Predictions

There is a whole lot of concern that the State-wide public defender system is going to implode.

Some of it has to do with the funding problems that I've mentioned earlier. I don't really know the whole story, but the local paper has devoted a lot of space to the various bills in the legislature, as well was the Brian Nichols trial.

I'm not sure what this means for the State-wide system. Luckily, our office is almost entirely funded by our county, so our operations will be unaffected.
