Bar Tales: Stories From A Southern Rural Law Practice (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Zany, crazy, juvenile and almost always humorous short stories from one rural southern county's bar association over a period of 35 years. These stories are absolutely true and you will meet the real judges involved, many of whom still practice law. Meet characters like The Queen of the Universe, Judge Silly (spelled Cilley), Judge Suzy, and a District Attorney Brad Greenway once called a "folksy mountain lawyer" by The Charlotte Observer newspaper. This book will show you what really goes on behind the scenes in courtrooms in rural areas of the south, and you may never think of your lawyer the same way again after reading this book. Our Bar Association is famous for our annual Bob-B-Que and our Bar Minutes are so funny there is a mailing list across western North Carolina.
