Lindsay’s Lawyer Is A Joke, So Says The Judge

Lindsay Lohan Goes To The Santa Monica Courthouse For Probation Class - September 14, 2010

Yet another day Lindsay Lohan is probably wishing she never fired Shawn Holley.

Judge Jim Nabney, the one leading her current perjury trial, called out LiLo’s new lawyer, Mark Heller as being “incompetent” and relayed that the actress should either get some one who actually knows what they’re doing or waive her right to a competent lawyer in California.

Seems like Heller’s been screwing up since the beginning, messing up on documents that wouldn’t fly in the California law system, him attempting to get the charges dropped after saying Lohan wasn’t properly “Mirandized” (when she didn’t need to be) and an overall bumbling demeanor.

    The judge went on to say Heller doesn’t have a clue about criminal law, questioning his competence to handle the case.  The California lawyer who’s sponsoring Heller to appear in Lindsay’s case didn’t show up today, and the judge made note of that … not that it would really matter, because the sponsor never practiced law a day in her life.

    Prosecutor Terry White made it clear … he’s ready for trial on March 18, where Lindsay will have to face the music in her lying-to-cops case.

    Heller was short on the law but long on platitudes … saying the judge needed to show Lindsay “mercy and compassion.”

While “mercy and compassion” might have been the rule of thumb for the actress, she was more than likely nursing off a hangover — she decided to bail on today’s hearing and was seen last night clubbing it up in NYC.

After the hearing, Heller said he didn’t believe he was wrong for the job, but just that things go differently in the New York judicial system.

Sounds like confusion all over — which makes sense considering who we’re dealing with here.
