Excerpt from motion and declaration of a Mr. Nelson R. Richards, Esq., a Deputy Attorney General with the California Department of Justice:
the attorney with
primary drafting responsibilities is not able to devote as much time each day
to the brief as he would under normal circumstances… In
particular, the assigned attorney has two children under the age of five at
home who cannot currently attend their normal daycare and a spouse who
works full time… As a result, the attorney with primary
drafting responsibilities currently spends more than half of each day as the primary caregiver for his children, and cannot work during those hours…
The California Department of Justice is not a small non-profit. It has an annual budget of over $1 billion (link). It might make sense to assume that perhaps another attorney could be assigned to help out this Mr. Nelson R. Richards, Esq., Deputy Attorney General with the California Department of Justice.
Also when California wanted to move quickly on its “emergency” stay in the same case, less than two weeks ago, it was capable of moving with remarkablealacrity within a few hours. I don’t suppose that the anti-constitutionalists inhabiting the state government might move quickly when it benefits them, and very slowly when speed would benefit the law-abiding taxpaying citizens of the state?
