Criminal mischief? What "damage" did he cause by throwing a jersey into a few cubic yards of cement--did it somehow weaken the structural integrity of the cement?

The fact that a raving lunatic owner, who buy comparison makes his crazy dad look well grounded, decided in his paranoia to rip up the cement to avoid some imaginary curse doesn't equate into criminal intent to cause physical damage to property by the worker

Note to Randy Levine--"heroic construction workers" means the guys who worked in the rubble of the WTC for weeks and months after 9/11, not these clowns who "blew the whistle" on a harmless prank. While you were Rudy's director of labor relations, you did everything in your power to screw over every union in the city.

Man, am I glad I left that zoo of a city
Mike you still a member of the NY Bar?

I am not licensed in NY, but I'll second seat you.


A little Pro Bono work?

The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope. ~John Buchan

NY never lets you off the hook once you're admitted--you have to pay your licensing fee every two years, whether you practice there or not. You can't go "inactive" and avoid the fee

I'm not up to date on my CLE so I'm technically not "current". You don't have to stay up to date on CLE if you're no longer actually practicing there, as long as you're up to date in the state(s) where you are active. And Mass. doesn't have mandatory CLE---yet

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.

I had to do the online courses last December in a two weekend burst. The course selection was actually ok and had it not been two weekend before the holiday it would not have been so bad. It is about $25 a credit and I used CLEonline.
