Jonna Kane MacDougallAs far as I can tell, March has no redeeming qualities. Of course, it’s the month for basketball and spring break, but
beyond that, there isn’t much to recommend – especially if you are in Indiana. Since I’m a native Hoosier,
my familiarity with March in other locales is somewhat limited.

Marilyn OdendahlMoving a trial from one court to another can be cumbersome and brings with it logistical matters that have to be worked out
so the lawyers can focus on presenting their case. Transporting office supplies, reserving hotel rooms, securing conference

Never heard of remand to another state. How often does that happen?
I highly recommend Deanna and her team of professionals that serve the legal community. Great information and many thanks for sharing.
they are pushing these cases against lawyers too far. thought-crime.
vagueness cannot challenged, so let's write all laws vaguely and throw the constitution out the window.Even if the court is operating under a particular law, if they don't it they will change it to their liking. What a joke!!!
Two convictions becomes one conviction with exactly the same sentence, only it is not clear wheter or not that sentence will be 18 months, 120 months or 138 months. Actually if the guns were in a home, whether or not they were his, he is protected under the 2nd amendment. Jurors need to learn the law and the constitution before judging others. The cour5ts need to do this as well.
