This Begging the Question post provides an appellate law clerk’s handy list of reminders for appellate lawyers in what not to do in advocating your client’s position. Hat tip to Evan Schaeffer over at the Illinois Trial Practice Blog for the link to this post.
By the way, Evan’s blog is one of the best in cyberspace in providing insightful and practical information for trial lawyers. I particularly enjoy the way he has organized his posts into various subjects relating to trial work. This is a great resource for trial lawyers, and a great example of how a blog can provide specialized information in a creative and effective manner.
