San Francisco lawyers join side protesting UC plan for building
BERKELEY — A team of noted San Francisco criminal lawyers has taken on the case of Zachary Running Wolf, one of several environmental activists who have been sitting high up in a grove of oak trees at the University of California, Berkeley in an attempt to block a sports complex the university plans to build on the site.
J. Tony Serra and Omar Figueroa said they have agreed to represent Running Wolf without charge because they feel his purpose is noble. Running Wolf, who started his tree protest with several others on Dec. 2, faces a felony charge of resisting an officer in the performance of his duties and a misdemeanor terrorist charge connected to his refusal to abandon his perch in a California live oak.

Seems a member of his new high powered defense team was a Stanford grad, though he did end up going to Bolt, you really have to question his motives. Adding to that he has run afoul of the bar it appears on at least two occasions.
