Introducing Guest Blogger Erica Hashimoto
I'm very pleased to announce that Professor Erica Hashimoto will be guest blogging with us during this month. Erica is a professor at the University of Georgia School of Law. She joined the faculty in the fall of 2004, and she teaches criminal law, evidence, sentencing, and legal profession.
Erica developed a practical understanding of criminal law and procedure while serving four years as an assistant federal public defender in the Office of the Federal Public Defender in Washington, D.C. In this position, she gained significant trial experience representing clients charged with a variety of federal crimes, including the possession of guns, distribution of drugs, fraud and threats on the president.
Prior to holding this position, Erica was a law clerk for Judge David S. Tatel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit (1999-2000) and Judge Paul L. Friedman of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia (1997-1999). She earned a bachelor’s degree with honors from Harvard University and a law degree magna cum laude from Georgetown University Law Center. At Georgetown, she was inducted into the Order of the Coif and served on the Georgetown Journal of Legal Ethics.
Some of her recent publications include:
* Defending the Right of Self Representation: An Empirical Look at the Pro Se Felony Defendant, 85 N.C. L. Rev. 423 (2007)
* The Price of Misdemeanor Representation, 49 William & Mary L. Rev. 461 (2007)
