Morning Docket: 04.26.18

* Rudy Giuliani is reportedly in talks with Robert Mueller over a Trump interview again. Because whenever you have a loose cannon for a client it's important to get them talking to federal investigators as soon as possible. [CBS News]

* A quick primer on today's Michael Cohen hearing. [Courthouse News Service]

* Looks like Geoffrey Berman gets to stay on the job at the SDNY. A little-known quirk of the system is that an interim U.S. Attorney, like Berman, can only stay in that role for 120 days and if the White House fails to confirm someone to the role by then, the district court gets to choose who will act as the U.S. Attorney. Judge McMahon says they'll choose Berman. It's an anticlimactic conclusion for those of us hoping the judges would put Preet back on the job. [Law360]

* Charlotte Law may be gone, but it has managed to live on as a whistleblower suit, though that may be coming to an end soon and Staci Zaretsky and Kathryn Rubino are partially to blame according to the judge's opinion. [Daily Business Review]

* The Cosby jury asked the judge to explain the legal definition of consent. How was that not a jury instruction? [Vulture]

* Sally Yates, who lost her job over Trump's original Muslim ban, offers her take on the latest version. [PBS Newshour]

* That story making the rounds about the golf course that called the cops on black golfers for golfing too slow? Well, one of those golfers is a lawyer. [Legal Intelligencer]
