Morning Docket: 01.27.15

* "She's kind of like Eric Holder in a skirt." Well then. No one else really seems to care about longtime prosecutor Loretta Lynch's nomination for the position of replacement top dog at the Department of Justice, but hey, maybe that's actually a good thing. [National Law Journal] * Yael Krigman, who left her job at White & Case to open up her own cakepoppery in Washington, D.C., doesn't miss being a lawyer. In fact, these days, she says she uses her law degree "much more than [she] did as a practicing attorney." [GW Hatchet] * It's official: the justices of the U.S. Supreme Court had no shame in their game when they denied certiorari on a civil rights case involving shirtless Wade McCree. It's too bad judges are immune from lawsuits like this. [Associated Press via Detroit News] * If you're lucky enough to have power, then boy, Dewey have a wonderful longread for you to take a look at on this "historic" snow day. It turns out that this failed firm's management painted a "rosy picture" to mask an "ugly truth." [ABA Journal] * Should you submit a law school application with a crappy LSAT score without first telling the schools that there will be another, hopefully better LSAT score coming? Please. They'll be thrilled you have a pulse. [Law Admissions Lowdown / U.S. News]
