Re: Coram nobis (followup reply)

this is a follow-up to my prior reply --

regarding malpractice -- that is probably not grounds for vacating the order or judgment. Rather, if you can prove it, it's grounds for a suit against the offending attorney.

If you would like to discuss, please feel free to contact me.
