California. Hear Ye! Hear Ye!
Cheryl Ann Podbielski, Esquirette has been nominated for induction into the Evil Esquire Bar Association. Prior to our ‘Bored’ making their arbitrary and capricious decision, we’re seeking comment from the public and those directly affected by her conduct as to Cheryl’s worthiness as a member of our notorious organization.
According to the Cal Barffoons, Podbielski stipulated to misconduct regarding her representation of a client in a personal injury matter. After filing suit, Cheryl abandoned her client, missed several court hearings, didn’t return files, refused to communicate and refused to cooperate with the Bar’s investigation.
Initially, the Cal Bar suspended her, ordered her to take the multistate professional responsibility examination and notify affected parties of her suspension. Cheryl failed to comply with the latter which prompted the BarFFOONS to disbar her on October 28, 2007.

CALIFORNIA ATTORNEY / CALBAR WARNING
The Cal Bar investigates few of the attorney complaints they receive– they alleged 29% (2007) but their report is intentionally obfuscatory and we believe this figure is much lower. Approximately only 2.3% (2007) of complaints received are actually prosecuted. Moreover, attorney discipline in California is highly political– read corrupt. We strongly advise anyone contemplating hiring a California attorney use our LAWYER PROPHYLACTICS.
The clowns, who operate the California Bar, in their infinite wisdom, allow attorneys to petition the Bar for reinstatement after they’ve been disbarred– we suspect such petitions are accompanied with a bag of cash.
Given the California Bar’s policy it is important anyone affected by this attorney’s behavior comment in order to provide the Cal BarFFOONS public comment upon any consideration of this attorney’s readmission to the Bar.

PODBIELSKI ADMITTED on June 14, 1998 to California Bar
On this date in the Golden State, Cheryl Ann Podbielski was admitted to the State Bar of California and can now append the title Esquirette after her name.
Congratulations Cheryl on passing the California bar examination! Those many years toiling at California State University and Southwestern University School of Law finally paid off. You’re now a member of America’s aristocracy! An officer of the court! A respectable member of society! And as long as your bar “dues” are paid up, safely ensconced high above the law.
Given the variety of concoctions offered in California drinking establishments, their bar examination is notorious for being the most difficult in the nation. In fact, it took former California governors Jerry Brown and Pete Wilson two and four tries, respectively, to pass.
Particularly tricky for most aspiring bartenders are the sections dealing with “professional responsibilities.” Certainly, Cheryl is relieved that’s over, can forget that nonsense and concentrate on extracting money from “clients.”
