Since getting any restitution out of her is almost certainly in the blood from a stone category, seems like at least 6 mos. to a year would be appropriate. Could well be, though, that the jails are already having to turn away more serious criminals -- serious as in personal violence.

In fact they do. When I was new
as a clerk in SF Superior Court, I was assigned to a crusty old Jewish Judge, who it was rumored, packed a .38 pistol beneath the black robe. There are less than a dozen CCW permits issued in SF, and any Judge who wants one could get one. I knew two who did.

And when this Judge made his ruling, the losing counsel's jaw dropped a mile and he stepped back incredulously.

Seeing this, the Judge stood up and roared mightily,

' I WILL NOT HAVE MY RULINGS CHALLENGED BY THE FACIAL EXPRESSION OF COUNSEL !!!!!!

It was a priceless Courtroom moment, How I wish you could have seen it.
