Background

He is a member of the American Civil Liberties Union, and previously represented Ward Churchill. In March 2006, geography teacher Jay Bennish hired him to assist in his reinstatement after being suspended. Lane has lectured throughout the country on civil rights and criminal defense issues, most frequently involving the Colorado method of capital jury selection. Among his civil rights cases Lane represented Steve Howards who was arrested for approaching vice-president Dick Cheney and telling him his policies in Iraq were "disgusting."

In October, 2009, Lane was retained by Fort Collins, Colorado residents Richard and Mayumi Heene, parents of the media-dubbed 'Balloon Boy', six-year-old Falcon Heene, in the wake of announced impending charges by Larimer County authorities, and possibly by federal authorities. Lane told the media he expected his clients to comply fully and "turn themselves in", and that he hoped to avoid the "spectacle and humiliation" of a situation in which the couple would be arrested in public and/or in front of their children.
