According to the latest release on “The Employment Situation – Aug. 2010,” from the U.S. Department of
Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics, legal services jobs saw a slight – and I do mean slight – increase compared
to recent months.
Before all you laid-off attorneys and paralegals jump for joy, you should know that the increase was just 1,000 jobs. But,
to look at the glass half-full, that’s 1,000 more people employed in the legal sector than last month. It also marks
the second straight month that the legal field saw an increase in employment.
The overall unemployment rate remained unchanged at 9.6 percent.
How are things looking locally? Are you seeing more new hires than in months past or is your firm still finding positions
to trim or leave open?
Welcome to First Impressions, a place for sharing your thought about legal news and issues in Indiana and beyond. I'm your host, Jennifer Nelson, Web editor for Indiana Lawyer. Just like in the courtroom, we encourage everyone to interact with civility.

Qualified immunity, means that if you wear a badge, you are exempt from law and free to do anything you please! The courts will back badge toting individuals, because they think they are above the law as well. They think, they have judicial immunity, they do not.

Deeply, deeply concerned? I'll bet if it was the judge's money that had been swindled we'd see deep concern with actual consequences. First a Ponzi scheme, then a shell game with the assets…c'mon, hasn't Conour abused the judicial system and his clients long enough? I say enough already.

Wow, just wow.

Forcing a defendant to wear a stun belt, in court or otherwise, is a violation of american principles! It is also unconstitutional!

So, if I save $100.00 cash per week, from my $500.00 per week paycheck, for 50 years, at which time, I will have saved $260,000.00, the government can raid my home and take my money, just by saying it is drug money! Shouldn't the government, have some kind of evidence of drugs, rather, than just saying we are the government and we will take anything you own, anytime we choose? Tyranny is upon us! If you don't know your rights, you don't have any!
