their associates, Legal Center for Victims of Domestic Violence)
shows why Legal Services Corporation should be unfunded. |
| Given this level of scrutiny, Legal Services lawyers have generally been
adept at hewing to the maze of rules with which political opponents have
circumscribed their activities when efforts to pull the budget plug
failed. Its a bit surprising that employees of North Carolinas

counseling migrant laborers contrary to their own agencys regulations.
The rules say non-citizens can only be helped on American soil. |

absolutely no respect for the way the operate (biased,
illogical). One of his coworkers is a woman who, in her
own words, defected from DCFS because of what she sees
as unfair operating procedures. She (Ill call her Jane)
told my friend that when women called them asking for free
legal help, they were instructed to refer the women to Utah
Legal Services. |
