Lindsay Lohan's Courtroom Catwalk: A Photo Essay
Courtroom or catwalk? Perp walk or runway strut? These are the "important" questions that the media has focused on in recent years when it comes to celebrities' run-ins with the law. Headlines focus not on their underlying criminal offenses, but instead on their couture du jour. This rings especially true in the case of Lindsay Lohan.... - Sponsored

The Eyes of the Law: Justices Who Are Slumming It
Justices of the Supreme Court are sort of royalty -- or maybe even deities, gods, and goddesses who walk among us. Alas, it seems that two members of SCOTUS didn't get the memo. They are comporting themselves in public in ways that are inconsistent with the dignity of the Article III judiciary.... -

A Crime of Fashion: When Law Students Dress Like Hookers
One of our tipsters alerted us to an episode of TLC's What Not to Wear -- the world's greatest guilty pleasure television show -- that we seem to have missed when it aired last year. The show featured a 2L from a southern law school, but this girl dressed more like a prostitute facing arraignment (sorry, Reema) than the lawyer representing her. So who is she, was she hot, what law school did she attend, and were Stacy and Clinton able to change this girl from a hooker to a looker? -

Summer Is Ending, But Flip-Flops Are Still Hot at Quinn Emanuel
Back in June, we wrote about the lawyers in the Fashion Victims Unit at litigation powerhouse Quinn Emanuel. We were a little surprised when we found out that partner Bill Urquhart was allowing — nay, encouraging — all associates to dress über casually at the office.
