Summer is fast approaching, and its time to stock up on your rosé.

Last month, I wrote about the problems witnesses pose, for both lawyers and clients. I spoke of the construction manager at Scotts Valley High School whose false testimony forced my client to sue the school district to get paid. In response, a letter writer suggested that my client should not have pursued the debt owed to him, apparently for the sole reason that the debtor was a school. This seems a dicey way for schools to balance their budgets — to refuse to pay their debts. I am curious what our letter writer thinks will happen when the district stops paying Pacific Gas and Electric Co. or fails to issue paychecks to its teachers.
