In fact, he thinks law school should be four years long. Go back into the woodwork, Rudy. [Big Law Business / Bloomberg BNA] * After a decade on SCOTUS, Justice Samuel Alito hasn't strayed from his conservative roots like some of his colleagues. He “has been every bit as conservative as conservatives could have dreamed -- and as liberals would have feared.” [ABA Journal] * Prior to Martin Shkreli's arrest, prosecutors obtained a secret order nullifying attorney-client privilege in communications between the pharma bro and his Biglaw attorney. Per records, this case has been ongoing since before he outed himself as a d-bag. [Reuters] * “Whether I want to marry or not, it should be my right to decide." China's first-ever lawsuit challenging its ban on same-sex marriage is expected to be heard in court today. In a country as conservative as China, this could be revolutionary.

The J-E-T-S will pay out $324,000, making it the fourth NFL team to settle such a suit. [New York Daily News]
