[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I see this behavior in a lot of lawyers (I'm one myself).

The trial, the all-important trial.  God help everyone else on earth, because the all-important trial must give way.  Nothing else is as important.  Nothing can get in the way of preparation for the all-important trial.  God help anyone who has any needs at all during trial preparation.

Ridiculous.  Ridonkulous.[/quote]

Sounds like you've never actually been on trial. [/quote]

I'm not the PP, but it doesn't matter. A death in the family does, in fact, trump a legal trial.[/quote]

But it's not an immediate family member. It's OP's mom's BF's mom! OP's client, the judge and all the witnesses who set aside time to be there aren't going to care. I'm not saying the mom shouldn't have gone, but OP is stuck. [/quote]

OP is not stuck. She has a husband and an entire metro area of potential sitters. Surely a competent lawyer and a dental student together have the intelligence and organizational skills to arrange other childcare for the children they chose to have. Blaming Mommy is just her gut reaction to all the stress. [/quote]
