COJ #40 - Russell Laffitte’s Sentencing + When To Change The Rules of Law

In episode 40, Mandy, Liz and Eric met up this weekend at Beech Mountain Resort in North Carolina to see Sheryl Crow perform at the Beech Mountain Music Festival.

If all goes according to plan, Liz and Mandy will be live-tweeting from the federal courthouse. On today’s episode we talk about the drama leading up to the hearing. We also discuss Cory Fleming’s upcoming sentencing on his single federal charge and why we think California has the right idea on what should happen after an attorney is accused of stealing millions from his clients. Eric also gives an excellent explanation of the difference between a motion to reconsider versus a motion to amend a judge's order.
