They always think nolo is some kind of get out of jail free card. You should have to do a allocution for a nolo contendere plea, and if you literally don't remember the alleged crime (because you were blackout drunk) or the crime is so nebulous you're not even sure if you committed it (could apply to e.g. white collar crimes), then fine.

I've done some appeals from your county. But it's a very small % since your county is so small, and I get cases from the entire state. Since you're moving up to the bigger crimes, I wonder if one day I'll end up with one of your cases.

in CA, PC 288 is lewd/lascivious act with an under-14.

it's kinda a catch-all for chomo shit - could be used for rubbing a girl's inner thighs or much worse.

You mostly learn by doing and observing court, and asking other Crim def bros when you’re unsure about something

just do it yolo. Get to know the judge and the prosecutors. Be there in the morning and watch arraignments and shit go down where PDs are doing 99% of the work, before they do trials that day

I had literally zero crim knowledge. We drank beer in almost every crim class in law school and I remember nothing. I walked into court during a plea day and just shook the head PD guy’s hand like a boomer bootstrap story and was like hey I’d like to start doing some public defender cases I’ve never done one in my life. A few days later they emailed me out of the blue and said they did entries of appearance for me on 15 cases and emailed me the files like “here you go good luck.” Nearly everything I know has come from a practice guide or AI. None of my clients have gone to jail (yet)

It's great because the clients are almost always guilty of whatever they're accused of and a bunch of other shit. If you lose, well, nobody expects you to win they're guilty & retarded. If you win, you're a miracle worker. Congrats brother.

The job has not been low stress for me. But I’m sure it’s more chill if you have a light caseload

Try working with the NGRIs and USTs specifically. All of a sudden your clients aren't in jail but state mental institutions. They are still chained up when you talk to them though and the rooms is all plexiglass and there's a guard right outside the door, so it's safe af and the facilities are quite a level up from the jail. The other patients don't even see you. It's super chill. You can also tell right away if they're still batshit a few different ways, but one is to look for remorse. It's never there, or it's fake as shit and undermined by whatever comes out of their mouth next. If you're taking to an actual thug and he has no remorse for ganking someone that's one thing, but when the lady is saying she believes in Jesus she needs to understand that killing that man was wrong, and she did it. You can't say "my client in sane" there. What you can say is "you're supposed to be giving her these other meds per the notes in the chart from last June" and make sure they do it

Some Advice From Your Public Defender

First, let me say I love my job and it is a privilege to work for my clients. I wish I could do more for them. That being said, there are a few things that need to be discussed.

You have the right to remain silent. So SHUT THE FUCK UP. Those cops are completely serious when they say your statements can and will be used against you. There’s just no need to babble on like it’s a drink and dial session. They are just pretending to like you and be interested in you.

When you come to court, consider your dress. If you’re charged with a DUI, don’t wear a Budweiser shirt. If you have some miscellaneous drug charge, think twice about clothing with a marijuana leaf on it or a t-shirt with the “UniBonger” on it. Long sleeves are very nice for covering tattoos and track marks. Try not to be visibly drunk when you show up.

Consider bathing and brushing your teeth. This is just as a courtesy to me who has to stand by you in court. Smoking 5 generic cigarettes to cover up your bad breath is not the same as brushing. Try not to cough and spit on my while you speak and further transmit your strep, flu, and hepatitis A through Z.

I’m a lawyer, not your fairy godmother. I probably won’t find a loophole or technicality for you, so don’t be pissed off. I didn’t beat up your girlfriend, steal that car, rob that liquor store, sell that crystal meth, or rape that 13 year old. By the time we meet, much of your fate has been sealed, so don’t be too surprised by your limited options and that I’m the one telling you about them.

Don’t think you’ll improve my interest in your case by yelling at me, telling me I’m not doing anything for you, calling me a public pretender or complaining to my supervisor. This does not inspire me, it makes me hate you and want to work with you even less.

It does not help if you leave me nine messages in 17 minutes. Especially if you leave them all on Saturday night and early Sunday morning. This just makes me want to stab you in the eye when we finally meet.

For the guys: Don’t think I’m amused when you flirt or offer to “do me.” You can’t successfully rob a convenience store, forge a signature, pawn stolen merchandise, get through a day without drinking, control your temper, or talk your way out of a routine traffic stop. I figure your performance in other areas is just as spectacular, and the thought of your shriveled unwashed body near me makes me want to kill you and then myself.

For the girls: I know your life is rougher than mine and you have no resources. I’m not going to insult you by suggesting you leave your abusive pimp/boyfriend, that you stop taking meth, or that your stop stealing shit. I do wish you’d stop beating the crap out of your kids and leaving your needles out for them to play with because you aren’t allowing them to have a life that is any better than yours.

For the morons: Your second grade teacher was right – neatness counts. Just clean up! When you rob the store, don’t leave your wallet. When you drive into the front of the bank, don’t leave the front license plate. When you rape/assault/rob a woman on the street, don’t leave behind your cell phone. After you abuse your girlfriend, don’t leave a note saying that you’re sorry.

If you are being chased by the cops and you have dope in your pocket – dump it. These cops are not geniuses. They are out of shape and want to go to Krispy Kreme and most of all go home. They will not scour the woods or the streets for your 2 grams of meth. But they will check your pockets, idiot. 2 grams is not worth six months of jail.

Don’t be offended and say you were harassed because the security was following you all over the store. Girl, you were wearing an electronic ankle bracelet with your mini skirt. And you were stealing. That’s not harassment, that’s good store security.

And those kids you churn out: how is it possible? You’re out there breeding like feral cats. What exactly is the attraction of having sex with other meth addicts? You are lacking in the most basic aspects of hygiene, deathly pale, greasy, grey-toothed, twitchy and covered with open sores. How can you be having sex? You make my baby-whoring crack head clients look positively radiant by comparison.

"I didn't put it all the way in." Not a defense.

"All the money is gone now." Not a defense

"The bitch deserved it." Not a defense.

"But that dope was so stepped on, I barely got high." Not a defense.

"She didn't look thirteen." Possibly a defense; it depends.

"She didn't look six." Never a defense, you just need to die.

For those rare clients that say thank-you, leave a voice mail, send a card or flowers, you are very welcome. I keep them all, and they keep me going more than my pitiful COLA increase.

For the idiots who ask me how I sleep at night: I sleep just fine, thank you. There's nothing wrong with any of my clients that could not have been fixed with money or the presence of at least one caring adult in their lives. But that window has closed, and that loss diminishes us all.

Had one of those days where I was hit by the sadness and tragedy of some of my clients’ lives and was tearing up thinking about it. I think it was interacting with one client who was a veteran with ptsd that set it off (im gay)
