 Attorney in bed with Adversary?What is the name of your state? New Jersey Regardless of the issue, I just want to ask is it unusual if you walk into the courtroom a few minutes late to see your hired attorney sitting with and cajoling with your adversary with her notepad out? Happened to me, anyway, and in the end I got sold down the river by said attorney. Just asking if you've ever heard of this conduct, and if so is this an "acceptable norm" in court procedure or pre-trial attorney-in-court conduct just to have your retained attorney "hanging out" with your adversary right there in the courtroom. Thank you for your time. "A lawyer's time is his Stock in Trade"-Abraham Lincoln |

| There is nothing wrong with opposing counsels chatting before court...

It is unusual for a party to walk into the courtroom a few minutes late. It is not unusual for attorneys to talk to one another. And if the other party is pro se it is not unusual for them to talk to the other party. As for sold down the river -- please explain. Apparently you didn't get what you wanted.

| Yes, Ohiogal, thank you I know that. The thing is there WAS no other counsel. My attorney was just cavorting and even givng ME dumb stares while sitting right next to the adversary in the court before I even walked in. I don' think this is fair. In fact I think it's downright misconduct, incompetence, and bias against the client of the Attorney (me.) |

| Whoops! Got the screennames wrong. Thank you for your input everyone. I don't think I got a fair shake from this attorney. Aside from that, she sold me right down the river as we were walking into the hearing room. Can you believe that? That's wonderful. |
