That seems unfair, and it doesn't work well with our system, because obviously the amount of time on a file could very much depend on what the other side in an adversarial system was thinking. I would imagine there would be cases where, if they knew that the maximum time a person had representation for was 25 hours, they would just delay the matter and do what they could administratively to run out the clock on that litigant.
Do you see it that way, and is that actually the experience?
