Lord, if they don't sue him, I think I'll go insane. BUT, THIS TIME, the SCHINDLERS have to get first rate lawyer (no offense to any other prior attorneys)- but its no secret, that Courts are swayed by the reputation of the lawyer standing before the bench.

Reputation? Sometimes the most important part of "reputation" is your reputation for having given the Judge in question a campaign contribution or having served as a campaign chairman.

Of course, this only applies where judges are elected by the public. In Virginia, where the legislature chooses judges, you can be sure that politics and personal connections have no connection to judges.
