The opinion

CATES, Presiding Judge

(concurring):

This appeal is a judicial titmouse garbed in the plumage of a turkey buzzard masquerading as an Eagle of Liberty. I would vote to affirm it without opinion with a sad adieu to the appellant on his merited j ourney to durance vile.

A court’s judgment entry which shows defense counsel present at the beginning of the cause means — unless otherwise expressly stated — that the defendant continued to be attended by his lawyer. It would be a farce to have to show a lawyer was there on the hour every hour.

This is a copy of a public record, reproduced as it was published. It is not legal advice, and it may not be the version a court would rely on. Check the official source before you cite it.
