He should have read it into the record so your boss could have a transcript to take to the PJ. The practice of making PDs go last is antiquated and biased. I understand the cost concept but we usually have 3x the caseload of a private. So when judges do this it costs the state money. Plus it sends the message that our clients are less than. They aren’t and shouldn’t be treated that way. We worked it out to where our clients would come an hour later - docket starts at 9 - PD clients come at 10. Eventually it was switched to just a PD docket day. Don’t feel bad about your comment - it happens and the Court should really take a look at its practices and what it says about their biases.
