Although those in the Drum Corps universe are watching the case with some interest, for the prosecutor, and esp judge, it is just one of many cases they are currently juggling. They need to make the schedules align, and although they can estimate how long a particular case will take that can always change, and schedule will have to adapt. Billable hours applies to the defendant, as the State pays the prosecutor. I have heard of cases where the defendant wastes many billable hours ranting to defense counsel about how unfair it is, etc, and attorney is happy to listen at $800+/hr (according to Google that is abt where criminal defense lawyers rates begin). Hell, I’ll listen. Change the 5 cents to $800 and start airing your grievances. Edited August 23, 2019 by Terri Schehr 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like I didn’t succeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of us saw it as the best way to find an answer. Will let Jeff answer for his post if he wishes. But when i posted that WDCHOF has a contact us link I was not being sarcastic.
