First Pooch Barney Gets Defense Counsel

Right on the heels of Barney, the White House dog, biting biting Reuters reporter Jon Decker, we now find he may have the perfect defense lawyer.

Guide dog Skeeter Jones now has earned a law degree Juris Dogtor. I’ll try to reach out to Barney, carefully, for an updated interview on the ramifications for the species, and of Skeeter defending him.

Meanwhile, while one wag thinks you’d be barking up the wrong tree if you hired Skeeter, the paw firm of Barker and Meowsky has already made him an offer.

What will become of Skeeter and Barney? Stay tuned.

The New York Personal Injury Law Blog is sponsored by its creator, Eric Turkewitz of The Turkewitz Law Firm. The blog might be considered a form of attorney advertising in accordance with New York rules going into effect February 1, 2007 (22 NYCRR 1200.1, et. seq.) As of July 14, 2008, Law.com became an advertiser, as you can see in the sidebar. Law.com does not control the editorial content of the blog in any way.

Throughout the blog as it develops, you may see examples of cases we have handled, or cases from others, that are used for illustrative purposes. Since all cases are different, and legal authority may change from year to year, it is important to remember that prior results in any particular case do not guarantee or predict similar outcomes with respect to any future matter, including yours, in which any lawyer or law firm may be retained.

Some of the commentary may be become outdated. Some might be a minority opinion, or simply wrong. No reader should consider this site (or any other) to be authoritative, and if a legal issue is presented, the reader should contact an attorney of his or her own choosing for advice.
