Lawyer of the Day: Stephanie Birkitt, Cardozo Law Grad and Ex-Letterman Lover

David Letterman Stephanie Birkitt lawyer.jpgTo paraphrase this video, inspired by an Avenue Q song and submitted to Above the Law’s first-ever Law Revue Contest, “What can you do with a JD from Cardozo?”

Um…. David Letterman? From Bitten & Bound:

David Letterman was the victim of a $2 million extortion plot and we have now discovered that according to New York public records, Stephanie Birkitt, 34, a former intern on The Late Show, lived with the accused extortionist Robert Joe Halderman, a CBS 48 Hours producer, and may have unwittingly fed him the information through the pages of her diary, photos and personal correspondence….

According to TMZ, Birkitt is one of the women who engaged in an affair with her boss, but ended it in 2003, prior to the birth of Letterman’s son….

Birkitt began working as a page for CBS New, 48 Hours, and The Late Show while still in college [at Wake Forest] in 1996. She spent a short time as an associate producer on segments for correspondent Erin Moriarty but soon decided that she wasn’t a news hound. That was when Letterman hired her as a personal assistant. She was initially brought on to handle his charities and his Indy car racing team, but her duties expanded over time.

Apparently so. Anyway, here’s the legal connection:

Birkett went on to the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law in New York City beginning in 2005 and passed the Connecticut bar exam in February 2009.

UPDATE: As noted in the comments, Birkitt also passed the New York bar exam in February. Congrats on passing two state bars, Steph!

FURTHER UPDATE: Actually, Birkitt’s relationship with Letterman may have lasted much longer. See here.

Now, before the elitists among you start ranking on Cardozo Law, there’s something you should know.

Birkitt apparently got a free ride (as did Letterman, hehe). From Gawker:

The scuttlebutt on the set had it that current assistant-in-question, Stephanie Birkitt, received extra compensation for duties as his First Assistant, in the form of Letterman picking up the tab for her graduate law studies at the Yeshiva University Law School.

Inspired by the reported romance between David Letterman and Stephanie Birkitt, as well as the movie Indecent Proposal, here’s a poll:

When I heard this story, she was my first guess. Lettermen used to have her on camera all the time when she was the assistant. The next one we will likely hear about is the older Asian woman who always had those awkward interruption schtick on the show. Every time he puts someone on camera they get extra cash.

From her perspective, she is a gold-digging prostitute. There is no way that a decent looking 25-year-old (which she was when she started banging him) could have found Dave hot and been turned on by him. So she just fucked him for his money and to have a sugar daddy for law school. Disgusting!

TOP TEN LIST

Top Ten Reasons Chicago Didn't Get the Olympics:

10. Dead people can't vote at IOC meetings

9. Obama distracted by 25 min meeting with Gen. McChrystal

8. Who cares if Obama couldn't talk the IOC into Chicago? He'll be able to talk Iran out of nukes.

7. The impediment is Israel still building settlements.

6. Obviously no president would have been able to acomplish it.

5. We've been quite clear and said all along that we didn't want the Olympics.

4. This isn't about the number of Olympics "lost", it's about the number of Olympics "saved" or "created".

No, he wasn't married at the time but he had a girlfriend of many years standing. Personally, I don't care if co-workers want to fuck, but it seems this was more of a hooker/john relationship. Ugly young woman wants to go to law school + ugly old millionaire resorts to paying skanks for sex. Some of us find that scenario sleazy and offensive, so why don't you just STFU?

126, no need to. Interupting someone's opinion with facts usually gets you nowhere. Especially when it's clear you're an in-thet-tank mouthpiece for the liberal left. There's no point in arguing with a creationist, and there's no point in arguing with you. If you really need a good response, look at the timeline of North Korean missle talks, Carter's visit and the first reports of nuclear reactors.Tell me if it was the Bush admin who "dropped the ball" on that one or if it was an infantile Clintonian reliance on negotiations that lead to our current predicament. Get a clue.

130, I'm not a republican. But you most certainly are a partisan democrat. GWB actively campaigned to toughen sanctions on Iran and refused to deal that thuggish regime. This adminstration sat silent while an election was stolen, then tacitly accepted a nuclear Iran, backed off, announced a renewed emphasis on ending Iranian nukes, then managed to get no concessions from either RUS or CHN. In effect, it's just a matter of time before they get the bomb. Appeasement has not worked.Yep, clearly GWB's fault.

The Bush administration refused to have biparty talks with both NK and Iran. This administration has announced its willingness to do both. Yesterday, they managed to get Iranian concessions to allow IAEA inspectors in. These are the same inspectors who got kicked out of NK just before that regime set off the bomb. Allowing IAEA inspectors in simply buys time for the regime to achieve their goal. In the case of NK, we've abandoned 6 party talks, which was a sine qua non of the last admin, and to what end? NK continues to rattle sabres and we now have no leverage. CHN, SK, JAP will not accept whatever deal we cut because they're worried we'll sell them our down the road. Yep, clearly GWB's fault. Imbecile.

135, you're making a bigger ass out of yourself than I could ever make of you. I'm not standing up for Bush. He was and is an imbecile. Many of his policies were abject failures. I won't, however, blame everything bad in the world on his administration's policies. It's childish to do so, and you seem quite adept at doing it. I hold this adminstration accountable for its failures, which at this point, number quite a few. We had one today, in fact. You need to learn to read.

TOP TEN LIST

Top Ten Reasons Chicago Didn't Get the Olympics:

10. Dead people can't vote at IOC meetings

9. Obama distracted by 25 min meeting with Gen. McChrystal

8. Who cares if Obama couldn't talk the IOC into Chicago? He'll be able to talk Iran out of nukes.

7. The impediment is Israel still building settlements.

6. Obviously no president would have been able to acomplish it.

5. We've been quite clear and said all along that we didn't want the Olympics.

4. This isn't about the number of Olympics "lost", it's about the number of Olympics "saved" or "created".

3. Clearly not enough wise Latina judges on the committee

2. Because the IOC is racist.

1. It's George Bush's fault.

Anyone above an assistant -director in TV land, can land any girl he wants for whatever he wants. I think Letterman was generous and clearly cared for her. Perhaps Cardoza was a goods as she could get. She seems to have not chosen well after leaving Letterman.
Perhaps she should have hung around.

Come work for amateur hour at the White House! POTUS goes to Copenhangen with celebrity buddies to win Olympic bid. Fails miserably. While en route, he meets with general in charge of one of two ongoing major US conflicts--a "war of necessity" as dubbed by our Commander in Chief during the campaign--for 25 minutes. I'm sure that was productive!!! A week ago, POTUS speaks in front of UN and admonishes the audience (after a heart-felt spell of self-flatulation) that weapons proliferation is bad. Ironically, his policies toward Iran and North Korea are completely useless in achieving anything close to disarmament. Welcome to Obamaworld where form always trumps function but the press still celebrates!!

How long does it normally take to get admitted after passing the bar?

167 - NY performs character & fitness after passing the bar exam, so admittance takes as long as the applicant takes to fill-out the forms and pass the interview. This could take years if the applicant waits, although I think one has to complete the process within 3 years or some deadline.

Taking up to a year is not uncommon.
