Morning Docket
Morning Docket: 10.10.19
* Where does Gordon Caplan go from here? Maybe he goes back to school… I hear there are some folks out there who can help him get in. [American Lawyer]
* Mitch McConnell’s aide is running for Kentucky AG. The only problem? Kentucky has a law requiring candidates for the post practice law at least sometime in the past eight years. He’s arguing that a federal clerkship should count as “the practice of law” as opposed to “one year Fed Soc externship.” We’ve made a mockery of so many rules, why not this one? [Corporate Counsel]
* Mark Zaid’s daily adventures representing whistleblowers. [The Hill]
* Bill Brewer heads to court to see whether or not his $177K benchslapping he received will stand up on appeal. [Texas Lawyer]
* Matt Lauer’s attorney pushing back against rape allegations, explaining that her former anchor client was involved in a completely mutual and consensual affair with someone on the lower end of a gross power imbalance. [National Law Journal]
* Railroaded former Goldman Sachs coder Sergey Aleynikov lost his recent appeal. He’d argued that double jeopardy precluded his conviction, which of course is a non-starter in a dual sovereignty world. [Law360]
* Freshfields partner resigns over accusations of “engaging in sexual activity with intoxicated junior colleague” [Legal Cheek]
