Another lawyer available for Ohio: [i cant find link in washington times
but here's this link]
Saddam Hussein's family dismissed a prominent Jordanian lawyer who had led the ousted Iraqi dictator's defense team, accusing him of seeking "personal gain and fame," other members of the team said yesterday.Saddam's family told Mohammed al-Rashdan in late September that he was being relieved of his duties, "but he did not accept the wish" until yesterday, said Ziad al-Khasawneh, spokesman for the lawyers appointed by Saddam's wife, Sajida.
Mr. al-Khasawneh told the Associated Press that Mr. al-Rashdan, appointed in January, handed over all relevant documents to Saddam's Jordan-based defense team yesterday. The team consists of 20 lawyers and 1,500 volunteers.
"He has traveled to the United States without the knowledge of the defense team. He communicated with the special Iraqi tribunal in charge of President Saddam's trial without our consensus, and he had differences with the family on defense procedures," Mr. al-Khasawneh said.
