Morning Docket: 12.28.15

* The lawsuit the Bernie Sanders campaign filed against the Democratic National Committee is far from over. Will a "full investigation from top to bottom" reveal that the DNC was trying to burn the Bern in the polls? [Yahoo!] * It seems like the whole two-year law school gambit isn't working out as planned, but maybe that's because it hasn't been properly executed yet. Sorry, Northwestern, but we're really not sorry for saying that. [DealBook / New York Times] * DraftKings and FanDuel threw the challenge flag after Illinois AG Lisa Madigan declared that daily fantasy sports betting was illegal in her state. Gibson Dunn and Boies Schiller hope review of the play won't result in another "Fail Mary." [Chicago Tribune] * "I thought I was the only person who felt that way." Feeling left out at law school? USC Law is trying to make legal education a little less intimidating for students who are the first in their family to attend institutions of higher education. [Los Angeles Times] * iDamages: If you thought Apple liked gouging its customers, then you should see what it does to its adversaries. Samsung just paid the company more than $548 million in patent infringement damages, but Apple wants about $180 million more. [Reuters]
