"[A] Republican on the congressional judiciary...."??? Do you mean Judiciary Committee? Or a Republican appointee on the federal judiciary? Whatever the case, the composition of this post wasn't worth DIDDLY POO. In my opinion that post sucked.

I heard that Mayer Brown's incoming summer class is approx. 60% of last year's.

Can someone confirm when the new data goes up on NALP as far as individual firms? Right now everything is current as of Feb. 2008.

Posted by Jim Mora in "Open Thread: Firms Rescinding 3L Offers?" Thursday, February 26, 2009 11:42 AM

Well, one has to wonder about the efficacy of pursuing a promissory estoppel action against one's former (?) employer as a 3L. Seems to me like it might be the sort of thing where a rescinded 3L might win the battle, via settlement or a miracle judgment, but still lose the war. After all, what firm is going to want to hire a 3L who sued his former firm, esp. when there's an ocean of other young attorneys out there who want work and *haven't* been similarly litigious.

Yo, Elie. How could you not comment on the gaping hole in Baker's comment? The said "The firm has not rescinded any offers to any lawyers." So long as 3Ls aren't "lawyers" (since they haven't taken/passed the bar), BB's statement says nothing about what the firm has done vis-a-vis its 3Ls.

Well, the 6:51 update sure makes the situation clear: either Mystal and his source are full of shit, or Baker Botts is. Ball's in your court, Elie -- time to cough up some supporting facts or cut this sensationalist nonsense out for a while.

I'm waiting on John McCain to tell us whether this is good news for him or not.
