hi atty.G!

I’m quite intrigued why is it that until now you have not answered a blogger’s queries re. plinky recto 9262 case..really, you withdrew as PR’s counsel? you were appearing with her most of the time on tv defending her cause, staying by her side in all those cases,tsk tsk..im just wondering what made you changed your mind leaving that damsel in distress (so to speak). I hope you can make things clear and give us tenable reasons behind leaving your client. thank you maam and more power!
