attorney's work product

A quick definition of attorney's work product:

Attorney's work product refers to written materials, notes, and other documents that lawyers create while preparing for a case. These materials are important because they cannot be forced to be shown to the other side in court. Sometimes it is unclear whether the documents were created by the lawyer or the client for use in the case, or if they are legitimate evidence.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Attorney's work product refers to written materials, notes, charts, and other documents that are created by an attorney or their team during the preparation of a case or legal representation. These materials are considered important because they cannot be required to be introduced in court or revealed to the other side. However, there may be a question as to whether the documents were prepared by the attorney or the client for use in the case preparation or are independent and legitimate evidence.

Example: An attorney is preparing for a trial and creates a chart that outlines the key points of their argument. This chart would be considered attorney's work product and would not be required to be shared with the other side.

Example: During an investigation, an attorney takes notes on their conversations with witnesses. These notes would also be considered attorney's work product and would not be required to be shared with the other side.

These examples illustrate how attorney's work product can include a variety of materials that are created during the preparation of a case or legal representation. These materials are considered important because they allow attorneys to prepare their case without fear of having to reveal their strategy or evidence to the other side.

yep, in jury selection you get a panel of jurors come in and from there you eliminate the ones that you dont want, until you get twelve. "busting the jury panel" means that there wouldnt be enough jurors to form a jury for the case so they would have to get another panel

uw sending cycle update emails when they've had me in complete for 2 months is crazy work
snow

so if i were the state, i wouldnt be scared to go through multiple panels to get a good jury. the judge would probs be mad but oh well
windyMagician
12:18
he'll be fine in prison. he also probably has a fed case being built against him.

I imagine getting a non-biased jury will be very hard
snow

thats why the state shouldnt be scared to go through multiple panels. the judge would probs get mad but its your case to prove
That makes sense. It's a plus for the state as well, since it's not like they're going to let him make bail. Any time up to the trial he'll just spend in jail
windyMagician

they got unbiased panels for Nikolas Cruz and Daniel Penny, it'll be fine
snow
12:19
yeah, but I think those were capital cases
snow
12:19
jury selection is different for capital cases
windyMagician
12:19
Daniel penny was not a capital case

@windyMagician: I would say depends the prison, I have met a lot of golden spoon children who could not handle the strictness of the military and lack of freedom. So many attempted suicides. I am sure prison is much worse

ohh the subway guy, my b

not tryna be racist but he just needs to stick with the italians

I do not believe they found a truly un-biased case for Daniel Penny. Finding someone in new york who hasn't been in a subway cart while criming is happening? Idk the statistic of those who witness or are victims of crimes on subway carts but I am sure it is very high
windyMagician

that's a good thing. juries should be biased in favor of the defense.
Honestly, that would be an incredible arc. Goes to NYS prison, gets taken under the wing of some geriatric wiseguys, then gets out and re-starts the Mob
snow
12:21
in theory yes, the defense did really good with that jury
windyMagician
12:22
we have a presumption of innocence in this country, time to start acting like it

@windyMagician: I can agree with that, makes it more of a jury of peers if they have been in the same shit show
snow
12:22
YES, im so tired of sitting through jury selection and people not understanding that a jury trial isnt an argument between two sides. its one side trying to prove without a reasonable doubt that someone did what they are accused of

unrelated but my gym crush date was fucking weird. had a great convo, didn't hug me at the end tho, then says he'll text me and doesn't? girl I'm too old for ghosting
If he wanted to he would girl
Don't give him the benefit of the doubt
windyMagician
12:24
why we're still acting like this at nearly 30 years old I do not know
Although I can respect the not hugging part after a gym date. When I'm finished with lifting, I have an incredibly potent odor that could overpower a delicate female
So I try to keep my distance
windyMagician

oh it wasn't a gym date it was dinner lmfao
windyMagician
12:26
but he was my crush from the gym
