I get some reader mail now and then and it’s usually about someone’s family member in jail or some conspiracy theory. Which is fine. But then I get the “are you really a lawyer?” “Have you tried any cases?” “Did you even attend law school?”

Since it’s a Sunday and I’m tired of scouring the web to bring you the stupidest stupidity, I’ll take a break to answer that second question.

(Okay, it wasn’t reader mail; it was the imbroglio who asked)

The question was posed thusly:

If you’re a PD and you’ve read this far, please tell me: How often do you go to trial in a year? Do you work mostly felony or misdemeanor cases? Inquiring minds want to know!

Okay, inquiring mind, I will tell you. On average I am on trial 5-6 times a year. They are only felony trials and some of them are even fun!

Others weigh in more informatively.

If you have a question for the Gideon, leave it in the comments.

Back to scouring.
