Chicago Lawyer Charles Guiteau on this day in history...
Quote:
Guiteau then obtained a law license in Chicago, based on an extremely casual bar exam. He used his money to start a law firm in Chicago based on ludicrously fraudulent recommendations from virtually every prominent American family of the day. He was not successful. He argued only one case in court, the bulk of his business being in bill collecting. Most of his cases resulted in enraged clients and judicial criticism.
Charles J. Guiteau - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Chicago politics and lawyers... haven't changed much in 130 years...
