Fake Lawyer Sentenced to More Than 12 Years Prison
http://ap.tbo.com/ap/breaking/MGBOGIRQF6E.html


<snip>Goldstein, 59, told U.S. District Judge David Carter that he won 25 cases in the eight months that he operated a busy Newport Beach law practice.

"I lied about being a lawyer but other than the lie, everything else was totally legit," Goldstein said.

Goldstein represented hundreds of clients, including many immigrants at deportation hearings, said Assistant U.S. Attorney Andrew Stolper. "It's a disaster," he said.

Authorities are reviewing cases handled by the fake lawyer but nothing can be done for the immigrants who were deported, Stolper said.
