“What you can’t have is a lawyer electing to serve as both a witness and counsel.”

I think I’ve said that about ten times now but thanks for reminding me!

The judge has a spine and maybe that is the problem?

Your argument is that since the judge has told the lawyer there's a possibility he may be called as a witness he should quit working for the client(s).

I am telling you that the prosecution can't just name him as a witness and force him out of the case ~ particularly if there's reason to believe the prosecution is using that as a TACTIC.

Double for the judge.

I think the evidence is there that the Prosecutor and the Judge are trying to get this guy out of the case entirely.

Also, when you name an opposing counsel as a witness it had darned well be about something that's going to be MEANINGFUL. If they don't have photos no one is going to be interested in a letter.
