Two more lawyering cases will be argued at the Supreme Court today. Wood v. Allen raises an issue certain to resonate with new lawyers and those who supervise them: whether an attorney's inexperience may constitute ineffective assistance of counsel. Pottawattamie County v. McGhee tests the doctrine of prosecutorial immunity where two prosecutors secured false testimony and introduced it at trial. The ABA Journal offers an interesting summary here.
For those of you tracking the Court's heightened interest in the law of lawyering this term, my latest count is ten cases.
