Worden" <wolfeyes@cdsnet.net> From: Paul Andrew Mitchell [address in tool bar] Subject: I need your advice. Hi Carl, I don't take cases either pro bono or on contingency. I see three options for you: (1) enroll in the Supreme Law School, and rub elbows with others who would be happy to share ideas with you, (2) retain the Supreme Law Firm at $75 per hour charged against an earnest retainer of $500, or (3) find your own way. Good luck! /s/ Paul Mitchell http://www.supremelaw.com copy: Supreme Law School At 11:41 AM 6/16/97 -0700, you wrote: >Dear Paul: > >This might sound silly, but it has legitimate constitutional concerns, so >please bear with me. > >My wife got a speeding ticket (60 in a 45)in early April.
