Michael Greco, president of the American Bar Association, argues for giving civil defendants the same rights as criminal defendants. |
“Equal Justice Under the Law,” reads the inscription
above the U.S. Supreme Court building. According to
Michael Greco, president of the American Bar Association,
those words represent a broken promise for far too many of
America’s poor. In his keynote address at this year’s Sparer
Symposium, Greco emphasized the need to extend to civil
defendants the guaranteed legal representation that criminal
defendants now receive.
