À propos de cet audio
The Poetry of Law is a collection of 25 narrative poems about the human experience of an international lawyer. In a general sense, such a practice deals with laws applying to the movement of people and goods and services across national boundaries.
The title seems an apparent oxymoron, but the poetry is in the people. The poetry is in the author’s journey from a wilderness log cabin beginning as the Northernmost lawyer in Michigan at the dawn of the Internet and ending with a practice in Manhattan. Along the way are the sometimes seemingly insurmountable human obstacles we all face in life and death, and the tragedy and comedy of wilderness and big city practice. Along the path were interesting clients and judges, from advocating Native American treaty rights for the likes of Ojibwa Fred Dakota, the father of Native casino rights, appearing as a young lawyer before an equitable country judge, William Konstenius, who was a veteran of the Normandy Landing, and later winning a Second Circuit appeal before now U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonja Sotomayor. The Poetry of Law shows we all have poetry in us.
