    It can’t happen soon enough. Nice woman, but she stopped being an effective attorney for public trust many years ago. All of the recent lawsuits and costs to the taxpayer wallet rest squarely on her poor legal advice and her unwillingness to tell any commissioner no. A good attorney protects her clients from making poor decisions. But she is certainly being successful at driving up her high five.
