MT: p.d. work not recession - proof
An update from The AJB's and Me on the effect of the downturn on some of our contractor colleagues:
...(T)he State of Montana Office of Public Defender may change how they handle their conflict cases, resulting in a significant decrease in the availability of contract work for us and many of our friends. Basically that's like getting advance notice that layoffs are coming at your work... We naively thought we had pretty recession proof work because in hard times more people need public defenders...
Some of us inside p.d. offices thought we might be immune too. We're nowhere near home-free yet.
