Taking Advantage of the System
You can be sure that if I or someone else claimed to have no money and requested a legal aid lawyer to file an appeal, we would be told to show proof that our family does not have the resources to hire a lawyer. That neither spouse has any money. That both partners are without funds.
If John Conyers is broke, he should not be in Congress representing the people. The man has been in Congress for 50 years, and makes $174,000 per year. How can this couple be broke? Why does the court system allow such flagrant disregard of the couples' finances and supply Monica Conyers with a lawyer at no cost to her or John Conyers. They are making a mockery of the system. Have they no shame.
While hard working people who get into trouble, struggle to pay for their own legal aid, embarrassed to file for government assistance because of the stigma attached to it, Ms. Conyers and her alleged husband, Congressman John Conyers, don't have a problem with it. This is a travesty being played upon the people they supposedly represent.
If they are not married, as it looks from his unwillingness to be seen in public with his convicted felon wife, that is an entirely different case. But all accounts are that they are still married, if only in name.
Let the people who actually need legal aid get it and stop this complete abuse of the system.
Thank is my stand, what is yours?

Take A Stand Why isn't the hadicapped with stroller-walkers allowed to use them in the Oxford movies? Wheel chairs are allowed,crutches,canes.And they can sit behind open spaces.
Hi Emma, I was unaware that Oxford Theatre had that policy. My father in law uses a walker and I am aware that they can cause problems but this is totally unacceptable. I will call them to get an explanation. Thanks for posting your comment.
