Common Pleas (Trial and Errors!) - Paperback

by J. Randolph Cresenzo Jd (Author)

Trial and Errors! (Whoa There!) is author and attorney J. Randolph Cresenzo's sequel to readers' requests for "More!" after his first well-received humorous legal thriller, Common Pleas (A Tale of Whoa!). Set in the contrasting backdrops of rural North Carolina and Havana, Cuba in the late 1980s, the wife of a local crime boss-indicted but disappeared-goes to court to seek her marital half of the millions accumulated by her husband's operation of an organized Southern crime ring. Veteran small-town attorney Bob Lee Pender, along with his savvy and beautiful big-city co-counsel, find themselves entangled with the inconsistencies of fact and fiction supplied by a sordid and colorful cast. Witness the inner workings of courtroom drama resulting in an astounding verdict of ultimate justice-or so it seems. But most of all, escape to a different time and place and laugh at the humor, ironies, and contradictions that make the pages of this engrossing tale seemingly turn themselves.
