I didn't hear them say they had no written agreement, only that they had never met with him in person. AFAIK, a client and attorney can make a verbal agreement for representation.

Only for a short time because in order to become someones attorney legally you have to file with the court. Notice of Representation.

Media report was information within 72 hours from SA, but who knows, maybe shoring up their ratings for the next few days!

Could be that LOL! I'm hoping it's because they want him in custody before they announce it.

Isn't that only if you are going to trial that you need to file a notice??

No question in my mind why GZ may have contacted Hannity. LOL

Care to share?

Hello everyone, trying to catch up from a work day. Question about the extradition, I read which countries did not have extradition treaties. Two countries I wondered about were Venezuela and/or Cuba, anyone know?

 

[legalmania]

What contract did he breach since they clearly didn't have a contract?

A verbal contract, is legal in Fl.

I also wondered about Cuba.

As far as I remember when you take a case you need to file as the clients attorney. The court is then on notice you are being represented.

Not me.. but GZs ex attorneys stated that he was IN the US (but I trust them as far as I can throw them)

US has a base there, still. Not sure that would be a good decision even if he could get into the country. jmo

Can't believe my "Dance Mom's" wasn't on tonight! :banghead:

As there is currently no court case, why would his attorneys have to file this??

Wasn't Guantanamo closed? Or did they just kick out the terrorist?

 

[Peliman]

I was just wondering in case he's asked to turn himself in and he fled the U.S.

 

[Isabelle]

If GZ is still in Fla, IMO he should stick as close to his lawyers as he can.
IMO, he is a TARGET, so many hate groups out there.
That is why I personally think he has flown the nest and is out of the country.
Easter is a very busy time of year to fly.........who would be the wiser????
Does he have a passport? Was he born in the USA? or Peru?

FBI could certainly find out if he left the country using his passport.

Guantanamo is still open but it's under U.S. control, it's the rest of Cuba I wondered about.

As far as I remember when you take a case you need to file as the clients attorney. The court is then on notice you are being represented.

But he hasn't been charged so they don't need to file with the court until the SA charges him or if they charge him. Right now GZ claims he's just asking for legal advice. Somehow the attorneys were looking at it differently. lol jmo
