[blindlaw] independent contractor?

[ckrugman at sbcglobal.net]

Here in California there are agencies that hire temporary attorneys. 
Additionally, locally I have seen several ads on Craigslist looking for 
stand-in attorneys for court appearances and the like. I would check such 
places as Craigslist under "legal jobs" as well as general bar associations 
as well as publications for specialized bar associations, e.g. trial lawyers 
or as we know it in California Consumer Lawyers.
