Interesting! Thank you. I'll pass that along. We have a good percentage of unbanked clients in our office.

We're trying to figure this out -- do the forms with the firm's account numbers get destroyed after the money is withdrawn? No chance it's gonna turn up in a FOIA someday?

So glad you discovered your niche, because you're my top go-to for making sense of things these days.

I'm trying to focus on the small wins and subtle gifts that I can still give: a work permit, a little more time, kindness, honesty, dignity. Light shining in darkness, that the darkness doesn't understand.

Yes, we are the ones who get to walk away safely. And as our ability to help narrows, that dissonance can eat us up.

Right there with you -- a poignant 42B denied this week. We carry whole lives in our work and our words, and there's no getting around the sadness when we can't lift them across the finish line. 💔

Philly is farming out some of its ECAS work to other courts, which may be why I got a hearing notice from Guam (and also why I was talking to Jackie in the first place, bcz stuff had gone sideways when someone didn't notice that no one had filed the motion that had just been mysteriously granted).

I have it from one of the PHL clerks that this summer the judges went from 3 clerks to 1, then some to 0 so the others have to rotate to cover them.

I had the same reaction to the El Salvador report. "Look, there's laws in this country! They must be doing good things."

"The state of exception, itself a legal mechanism, increased the number of days an individual could be held in detention before being formally charged." (Spinning the state of exception so it's okay, I guess? Since it's a legal mechanism.)

I actually decided to assert my right to refuse when i saw that this summer, sort of as practice for doing so in other contexts where i might personally be inclined to obey just because someone gave me a direction to follow.
