seven public defender offices (and one community defender office)... will be required to turn down major case assignments -- such as death penalty cases, large white collar cases and representation of defendants facing civil commitment" -- as a result of the sequester.Nachmanoff's counterpart in the Western District of New York, Marianne Mariano, offers more examples of the impact of the sequester upon federal judicial employees. In a letter last week to Dennis Jacobs, the Chief Judge of the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, Mariano wrote: "I anticipate all attorneys and staff will be furloughed 22 days. I have one employee who volunteered to take 28 days of leave without pay." In the Northern District of Texas, federal public defenders just warned judges that they "anticipate a likely need to withdraw from cases that require expert witnesses because our budget for expert witnesses has been decimated."For the American People One federal public defender, who also asked to remain anonymous
