For Shame...

This guy gives us all a bad name:

The Illinois Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission says James Casson charged a defendant's family three-thousand dollars for work that should have been done for free.The A-R-D-C says Casson told the relatives he would spend more time on the case if they paid him the money. Casson allegedly received a check for the amount but relatives stopped payment before he could cash it.Casson is accused of being dishonest and violating several state rules.He is a private attorney who is paid more than 56-thousand dollars a year to represent criminal defendants as Livingston Countys part-time public defender."
