One would safely assume that since you are aware of the situation, that this person is having some success in communicating with the outside world?  With that in mind, I would do my best to get in touch with the sympathetci media outlets (think national/regional as opposed to local) the ACLU, Amnesty International, The John Howard Association (this would be my first pick personally), the justice project at Northwestern University (IL), also with any other university/law school or organization that does pro bono type work, and many times have contacts at media outlets that may be able to exert some pressure on "the powers at be" through those channels.  Not to be a pain in the rear, but IMHO it is very impractical and unwise to represent yourself, this situation being a perfect example of the pitfalls...in an ideal world, he should/could contact the KS Attorney General's Office, the Governor's Office, or perhaps even the Dept. Of Justice in DC, however in this day and age most complaints against "the establishment" or "the system" fall on deaf ears amongst other members of the machine, particularly as we seem to be removing the concepts of real justice and  humanity from our increasingly greedy and corrupt society and government bodies at a breakneck pace...bottom line tell the inmate to KEEP HIS NOSE CLEAN (as they are undoubtedly gunning for him) keep trying and good luck as the odds are highly stacked against him...

Check with the bar association of the State in which he practices. Sullivan's also puts out a state by state legal directory.

I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT WANT TO KNOW A LITTLE MORE ABOUT CHENEY!!!!  The success of Bush Vice Presidential running mate Richard Cheney at leading Halliburton, Inc. to a five year $3.8 billion "pig-out" on federal contracts and taxpayer-insured loans is only a partial indicator of what may happen if the Bush ticket wins in two weeks. A closer look at available research, including an August 2, 2000 report by the Center for Public Integrity (CPI) at www.public-i.org, suggests that drug money has played a role in the successes achieved by Halliburton under Cheney's tenure as CEO from 1995 to 2000. This is especially true for Halliburton's most famous subsidiary, heavy construction and oil giant, Brown and Root. A deeper look into history reveals that Brown and Root's past as well as the past of Dick Cheney himself, connect to the international drug trade on more than one occasion and in more than one way.\nThis June the lead Washington, D.C. attorney for a major Russian oil company connected in law enforcement reports to heroin smuggling and also a beneficiary of US backed loans to pay for Brown and Root contracts in Russia, held a $2.2 million fund raiser to fill the already bulging coffers of presidential candidate George W. Bush. This is not the first time that Brown and Root has been connected to drugs and the fact is that this "poster child" of American industry may also be a key player in Wall Street's efforts to maintain domination of the half trillion dollar a year global drug trade and its profits. And Dick Cheney, who has also come closer to drugs than most suspect, and who is also Halliburton's largest individual shareholder ($45.5 million), has a vested interest in seeing to it that Brown and Root's successes continue.

This must be new, haven't heard of this yet.  1st amendment is the reason why.  Shoot, Mr Cheney told a senator to go f*&^ himself in the senate house, balls being met with balls is OK in my book.  I admit it, I like Cheney, alot more politicians should be told to go f#%$# themselves.

No one is saying Cheney shot his hunting buddy on purpose, I've heard no talk of criminal charges,it was an accident,but not an accident I feel is easily excusable.\nA man who has been hunting as long as Cheney has no excuse for not knowing what is in his field of fire before pulling the trigger... He discredited himself, the public is merely talking about it....and the fact that he did not have the proper hunting license for shooting upland birds....lots of hunters in that area have made the same mistake because that tag is a new requirement, not a huge deal, but very entertaining.

Hi Flavormint!\nI've heard about the Lying Lawyer. He's a good family man but has a bad habit at the race track. He welshed on a loan so, some goons had to be sent out to collect a payment. When the good affable attorney couldn't cough it up and instead mooned them them with butt cleavage, they had to tie his fingers together in a most unpleasant way.\nFlavormint, my girlfriend was unfortunate to be applying as a receptionist that day when she had to witness the unfortunate events. I don't know if the Lying Lawyer is still practicing law or not.\n-Zealnik

The Republican candidate in 2008 will have to distance themself as far from Bush as possible to have even a prayer at winning.  Being Bush's vice president will hurt them, not help them.  As for Cheney, he will be vice president until he dies, or until the term ends, whichever comes first.  He is the most powerful person on the planet, and he loves the job too much to give it up.

go to phone book and find a lawyer who works on a contingency basis

There's a bit of arbitrary here. In the US, any lawyer who is a member of his/her state Bar Association is a genuine lawyer. And the same is true in other countries as well, though with different terminology. \n\nBut what you're really asking is whether you can find a lawyer who wil actually work on your behalf rather than merely doing a perfunctory jub and then billing. Perhaps so, but you'd be more interested I think, in whether the lawyer was good, regardless of his/her attitude to ward you personally. And there's little way to tell that, unless you can foretell teh future. perhaps comments (idelaly anonaymous) of other lawyers in his/her town. and hope that all their opinions are honest as well as infomred. \n\nBut, since your problem is acute, you may not have enought time to do that. you might want to chekc local media for prior news (local lawyer sentenced for incompetence will be a giveaway, of course) and Google his or her name as well. You might turn up out of state problems.\n\nAnd interview before hiring. See whether you and a prospective lawyer get along personally. The hale fellow, well met cartoon sort of lawyer might not be suited to a shy and retiring slip of a girl client. \n\nGood luck with your problem.

They look a lot like older lawyers to vice presidents.

Sure. They are his advisers and they serve at his pleasure. When he "hires" them, the Senate has the power to reject his nominees and force him to nominate others. But once they are confirmed, only the president can ask them to resign. One exception is the vice president, who is considered a member of the Cabinet but who is elected with the president and serves the same term as the president. In order for him to be "fired" he would have to be impeached by the House of Representatives and removed by the Senate. But if the president and the vice president have a falling out, the president always has the option of excluding the vice president from his meetings.

Most attorneys do their own legal research.  Older attorneys may have the luxury of paralegals or younger associates to do this work for them.  But in the end, we all do at least some of our own research.
