>>>FREE and DONATE
Way to go with the political buzzwords.
I practiced law for 25 years with much appellate work and not a little pro bono. Never heard that rule, written or otherwise. The bottom line, pro bono is something you do voluntarily and deliberately to contribute good to the society. Sometimes it is helping a widow recover money taken by a con man. Sometimes it is advancing an important point of law.
It is not something you use to help deliver body blows to the constitution, unless, like David Souter, Justice Kennedy, and Justice Stevens, Justice Ginsberg and Breyer, you think body blows to the constitution are good things or you just don't care and you are helping a buddy in the firm deliver the body blows.
Neither explanation gives me much comfort.
I am an accountant who has helped lefties set up non-profits whose mission I have disagreed with.
