He prosecuted her, she served time in prison; now he is appointed by the Court as her defense attorney

Today James Cunha and Rebecca Hamline lucked out.

Allan Dollison, who has previously prosecuted both James Cunha and Rebecca Hamline, when he was a Deputy District Attorney, for which they served prison time was appointed by the court as Hamline's attorney this afternoon in Courtroom 1. Mr. Neal Sanders was appointed for Cunha. Mr. Dollison is now a private criminal defense attorney. Mr. Sanders is also a private attorney.

At the last hearing, they both had public defenders. When all public defender offices have conflicts, private attorneys are appointed for the defendants.




Moral of the story or if crime tip of the day, depending on your perspective is, do enough crime and you too can get a private attorney appointed at taxpayer's expense.
