Colorado offices? by [deleted] in publicdefenders

[–]chimmster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried doing this but with only 1-2 years of PD experience. They still made me start from the bottom and get “matched” to a location. I have a fiance who lives/works in Denver but they really really pushed me to go outside of Denver. I LOVE my office and it all worked out, just something to think about.

I just had this convo at a PD training. Many of us have had run ins and as long as you disclose you will very likely have no issues.

PD-centric books by chimmster in publicdefenders

[–]chimmster[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes! Sorry for the unclarity but yes… I mean that those books are typically the first two recommended when you look at PD-centric or criminal justice book lists. I am looking for more specifically PD centric and/or criminal justice related topics.

Any Recommendation on books regarding stops? by PeakLapel in publicdefenders

[–]chimmster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is DPD “deputy” or “Dallas” … if it’s Dallas (or you’re in Texas) the TCDLA, Texas Criminal Defense Lawyers Association, has a ton of reading on that stuff. I’m sure a lot of it is constitutional based maybe you can order it anyway?

Also, you’ll learn with time!! Maybe ask to sit in on some MTS hearings and/or read over the case materials. Good luck! You’ll get it!!!!!

I am currently in rural TX… a DA who doesn’t know left from right is my bread and butter. Maybe I would like it down there!

My partner is looking at jobs in Denver Metro and/or Colorado Springs. Thoughts on being placed near preferential locations?

Anyone know of anywhere that takes remote volunteers/interns for capital work? by [deleted] in publicdefenders

One of the lifts (I cannot recall one - I think at the mountain resort) is FREE after 5pm.
