#2 Perhaps this is a "no" to that $500 million in lawyer's fees they were seeking a week or two ago.

#4 An unusual beginning to the joke that ends, "Well, it's a start."

#5 Guess the client really really really wanted a continuance of the matter or wanted to switch horses without paying the outstanding balance over the retainer. Lawyers don't do anything without clients. Clients come with all the good, bad, and ugly baggage included. In this particular case the "best client is a dead client" quip would be particularly applicable.

#8 Sounds like Iraqis want only obvious asshols to represent these killers. Anyone ranking higher than asshol may be 'removed' by interested parties. It would be silly for the defense to display any intelligence.

#9 Well, I guess he shouldn't have taken that particular retainer....

#10 Well, if it's goin to take a while to find another defense atty. then I say we extradite him to Iran to be tried for the crime of the Iran/Iraq war. Everybody wins that way. Those wacky crazy mulluhs look good. Iraqis are free of him, and don't have to testify. The US looks neither good nor bad.

#11 he'll think twice before he takes a case like that again.

They'd probably let him go just to spite us.

p.s. - re: #7, my thoughts exactly Penguin! =)

#14 This should not have happened.

However, it may be that this guy refused protective service because it was 'the occupiers'.
