Had a traffic ticket, went in to see if I could just delay it for a day, the judge asked if I was a lawyer, I said yes - but not that kind, she said that wasn't the question. I said yes, got to skip a line of maybe 20 people and have a nice muni court judge call me counselor. I hear there's an opening in Texas.

nm posted:I hear there's an opening in Texas. Yeah, are you a Texican or a Texican't? Anyway, I'm reading about an interesting development back home. One of the largest cities in the country (not that that's saying much) just got slapped with a P1-1 violation (violation of the European Convention on Human Rights protocol one article one) which protects the much neglected and often surprising human right to private property, for the city's crappy job regulating their living area in an overly restrictive fashion. The slapper is the civil ombudsman (sort of a direct envoy of parliament) and now also the municipal court. I am loving it. I have been arguing for loving years that P1-1 has a bunch of important implications for our municipal practices and I've tried in vain to argue from this ruleset, but old curmudgeonly judges and lawyers weren't having it. Well, this is a great example of ECHR actually loving Mattering like it's supposed to and it gives me some actual hope for the utility of the convention in the future.

Pook Good Mook posted:How did they know you were a lawyer? Just because you had a suit? That's typically the giveaway. In my part of Florida it's pretty routine to let private attorneys cut in line all the time. The PDs and SA are going to have to be there the whole time regardless. Some judges even put out sign in sheets.

Another job interview Monday. This is my first with a state agency that turned me down last year. They have a vacancy that needs to be immediately filled, though, so maybe this time I'll land it.

Handle administrative and appellate litigation, and provide guidance and legal opinions to the division as requested. The current opening does not have a posting yet, but it's in the same department and I'm interviewing with the same people.
