Public Defender Retreat?
I just learned there's a “6th Annual Public Defender Retreat” coming up in March in Las Vegas. Does anyone out there know anything about this?
UPDATE: Sanchovilla, the Public Defender Investigator, knows something about this conference. He writes:
its mainly a place for Public Defenders to earn some MCLE credits and party. Since I'm not an attorney, I don't have to worry about the credits but I will be hanging with friends, listening to some more great speakers, playing poker in the 2006 World Defender Poker Championship, and generally just taking a breather from the daily grind.
World Defender Poker Championship? Sounds very tempting, but I think I'll wait until I'm actually a defender before I try to buy in.

FYI - Entry to the poker tourney is $50.00 and it might be a good place to do some schmoozing with public defenders from areas you're interested in working in.

Thanks for the tip, but don't tell my girlfriend -- she doesn't need any more encouragement to go to Vegas...
