Boogie borrowed some tools from me last night so I know he's not in jail....maybe on the lamb.

On the lamb? Does that mean he's moved to New Zealand? :-)

What sort of tools did he need? Bolt cutters? Did he have a tiny steering wheel on his Fiat, so he could drive with handcuffs?

Well it's time for closure for those of you who have been wonderng what's been happening!

I went in for another trial on the 14th, I walked in to the courtroom at 8:20 for my 8:30 start time. My lawyer met with me and told me that the prosecution was going to ask for a continuance and we were going to ask for it to be dismissed. I was number 8 on the list for the day, so the waiting began. I was almost immediately called up to the stand due to people not showing up on time, and other matters being dismissed right off the bat. When my turn came, I approached the stand and things went just as my lawyer said they would. The case was presented, and the prosecution immediately asked for a continuance because they weren't prepared. He judge asked if it was a pace case and halfway through the prosecutor saying "yes", the judge cut him off with a stern "dismissed". I was out of the room by 8:37.

so after 6 months of stress and worry, I'm a free man with a clear record!

Done, and done.

Sometimes, a lawyer is actually worth what he is paid. Bet it was an expensive lesson. Now, stay a free man with a clear record!

All right now. That's what we were hoping for. It's a shame you had to hire a lawyer though. Congrats :!:
