Morning Docket: 03.18.15

* An Ohio attorney was charged with making bomb threats at two state courthouses, but only after he was indicted for allegedly making bomb threats at a third courthouse. Wow, it's almost like this guy didn't do his homework motions or something. [Northeast Ohio Media Group] * Loretta Lynch, our would-be replacement for Eric Holder as attorney general, still hasn't been able to get confirmed, and the delay -- which is being blamed on our Senate Majority Leader's "inept leadership" -- is now being referred to as "unconscionable." Lovely. [CNN] * What’s happening at #ATLConverge today? Check out our Twitter feed! [Converge] * Earlier this week, Morgan Lewis combined with Singapore firm Stamford Law Corp. Effective April 1, ML&B will become one of the largest Biglaw firms in the world, rivaled only by the likes of Baker & McKenzie and Dacheng Dentons. [Philadelphia Inquirer] * More federal prosecutors are stepping down from their jobs and returning to their former Biglaw homes in private practice. Once you realize government work is a giant revolving door, soon enough, it'll be your turn to leave. [Big Law Business / Bloomberg] * If you're still making a decision about which law schools to apply to, you can use the U.S. News rankings to help yourself. In the alternative, you can use the ATL Top 50 rankings to see if you'll be able to get a job after graduation. [Law Admissions Lowdown / U.S. News]
