Good morning. I laughed when I read the list because the last sentence has been very obvious to us here all along. We don't need a law degree to see the State , time and again, pointing out that the defense motions, "are a farce, don't even come close to meeting the requirements, are legally flawed, are a mess, misstate the facts and misstate the law", etc. etc. Hearing after hearing we see that the defense wastes the court's time, is ill prepared and making a mockery of the entire proceeding. Then we see the defense do things outside of court that are a nightmare for their client. We here have had threads based on the missteps and trying to discern what in the world the legal strategy is behind the chaos. We so appreciate you and our other lawyers that are members, like Themis, actually lighting the way and breaking down the actual Florida laws.Secretly we cringe; because, now with your public postings you are rather kibitzing, schooling the defense and it seems a shame they should benefit from your counsel rather than the state.
I do have a question for you about the payment of the defense. Baez's daughter posted publicly that she was responsible for the media relations in this case. One of our members Muzicman posted this from some time ago:"I had this saved, good thing because the link no longer works:
"Life is always brighter with a smile," said Miami, Fla. native Christina Baez. While Christina, like most Miami natives, loves the beach, her home and heart is in the Swamp. Christina, this year's PRSSA Tresurer, dreamt of being a Gator and a Gator cheerleader since she was 7 years old, when she lived with her mother in on-campus housing, just a few steps away from Christina's freshman year dorm.
Now a senior, Christina has been a member of the Florida Competitive Cheerleading Orange team for three seasons. She also has a background in media relations and crisis management matched by few other public relations students. During the summer of 2008, Christina was hired by her father, Jose Baez, to handle all media relations in the Casey Anthony case and the search for her missing daughter, Caylee Anthony. During this period, Christina handled all national and local media appearances for her father in print, network and cable television, and radio. Christina has worked closely with major print publications such as People magazine and the Orlando Sentinel. She also worked daily with major network shows such as Good Morning America, NBC's Today show, Fox American News Live and ABC's 20/20. She has worked with programs on CNN, including Larry King Live and Nancy Grace.
Christina's ultimate dream is to travel the world. In the past few years, Christina has visited several popular destinations such as Southern Europe, Morocco, New York City, Las Vegas and the Bahamas. She has combined her passion for traveling and Public Relations, and is currently interning with Contiki Holidays in their Field Marketing Internship program on-campus. Christina will graduate in May 2009 as a Public Relations major with minors in Spanish and Leadership."

If the judge should learn that she sold the photos and videos, while working for daddy, will it be looked upon that he perjured himself telling the judge "I" have not sold them? He sure wants to claim agency relationships and extend his I to we when it suits him ( privilege he argued extended to LP, et al). That brings me back to the difference between you and he. That confidentiality agreement between himself and Leonard and company contradicted itself paragraph by paragraph Mrs. Drane- Burdick pointed out. It literally said that they DID NOT IN ANY WAY work for him. That ws one of my favorites. I said a long time ago, that if the matter weren't so serious, one would think we were watching a SNL skit of a silly new lawyer trying to show off for his girl in a modern day Dagwood Bumstead style. I trust when you are in court, you honest to goodness show up to work.
