Hacking The Man: Your Guide to the Courtroom

Presented at Notacon 8 (2011), April 15, 2011, 1 p.m. (60 minutes)

Someday, you'll get jammed up with your jurisdiction's legal system. Hear and learn from one man's epic story of courage, determination, clear writing, and cool logic-resulting in the overturning of a bogus conviction for running a stop sign in Cleveland.

This presentation isn't just about traffic violations. It's for anyone facing (or contemplating) civil or criminal proceedings that are too important to ignore, too small to justify professional legal help, and perhaps too interesting to leave alone.

    catfood has been hacking artlessly since implementing a FORTRAN preprocessor in the Lotus 1-2-3 macro language in 1988. Now, he helps software dev teams get projects done faster without burning out. This presentation is based on his recent pro se adventures in the courts of Ohio. (catfood is not a lawyer and no part of this presentation constitutes legal advice.)
