How much did the lawyer bill for the last futile appeal?
Who paid him?
Is the lawyer not guilty of filing a futile appeal? Is there a fine for futile appeals?
Should the costs of prisoner maintenance during the futile appeals not accrue to the lawyer?
We the tax payers and VICTIMS pay for it! Same goes when you must travel for a parole hearing. Victim made a victim again, to support the criminal who victimized them or their child.
