34. In a court of a law, yes.

But there's a difference between reserving one's legal rights to a fair and impartial trial, and doing what is right for the state you're supposed to be interested in serving. If Blago cared about anyone but himself, he'd realize any appointment he makes is detrimental to the Democratic Party and the state of Illinois as a whole. Any appointment he makes would inevitably come under a cloud of suspicion and be entirely ineffective as a senator.
