Morning Docket: 10.22.19
* An alleged New Hampshire church shooter has allegedly beaten his own lawyer… good luck trying to find another attorney to represent him. [Boston Herald]
* A bunch of law firms are vying to provide fixed-rate trademark services for Amazon. Wonder if they’ll offer free two-day delivery to Prime members. [American Lawyer]
* It may be time for the “Piper” to pay — another DLA Piper employee alleges inappropriate behavior by a firm partner and administrators. [Bloomberg]
* R. Kelly and his divorce lawyer are in Splitsville over R. Kelly’s alleged failure to pay his lawyer’s fees. [Chicago Sun Times]
* Roger Stone won’t be able to show clips from The Godfather Part II at his trial. I guess they made the judge an offer he could refuse. [Daily Beast]
* Unfortunately, two beaten-up lawyers make today’s Morning Docket. The Cleveland attorney sucker punched by a client after a 47-year sentence was handed down is mulling a lawsuit against the local sheriff’s department. [Cleveland.com]

Morning Docket
Morning Docket: 10.14.19
* Remember how EU ambassador Gordon Sondland was forbidden to testify before Congress? And how he texted the Ukrainian ambassador that the president wanted “no quid pro quo’s of any kind”? He’s about to testify that language was dictacted by Trump himself. Hmm… [Washington Post]
* Rudy Giuliani, Trump’s personal attorney who Trump is attempting to distance himself from, is reportedly being investigated by federal prosecutors over his ties to the removal of former Ukranian ambassador Marie L. Yovanovitch and whether he violated lobbying laws in the process. [New York Times]
* After much negative publicity and a student protest, Louis Lehot, the DLA Piper partner who was accused of sexual assault by a fellow partner, was kicked to the curb by the firm. [American Lawyer]
* Art Lien, who brings the Supreme Court to life for the rest of us, is one of the last courtroom sketch artists in the nation. The justices are still against cameras in the highest courtroom in the land, but even Lien thinks his days may be numbered. [Quartz]
* In case you missed it, the jury in the Dan Markel murder trial convicted Sigfredo Garcia of first degree murder but declared a mistrial for his co-defendant, Katherine Magbanua. Garcia faces the death penalty, and Magbanua will remain jailed until her case is retried. [Tallahassee Democrat]
* Sign up here if you’d like to take part in a conversation between best-selling author John Grisham and former U.S. attorney Preet Bharara (S.D.N.Y.) this Wednesday. I’ll be there to cover the event for Above the Law, and I hope to see you there. [TimesTalks]
