Morning Docket
Morning Docket: 12.21.15
* Nobody puts Bernie in the corner! The Democratic race for president has been a little more exciting ever since the Bernie Sanders campaign sued the Democratic National Committee over a data breach involving Hillary Clinton’s voter information. [New York Times]
* Everyone else and their mother has been disciplined in the Pennsylvania Porngate scandal — except for AG Kathleen Kane’s twin sister, prosecutor Ellen Granahan. Her emails were just as awful, but nothing’s going to happen to her. Ain’t nepotism grand? [Morning Call]

* The house always wins? Before its sale to billionaire casino mogul Sheldon Adelson, Las Vegas Review-Journal reporters were asked to investigate and write about a judge who may soon make a ruling adverse to his interests. [DealBook / New York Times]
* Arkansas Law wants to dismiss Prof. Robert Steinbuch’s suit over its admissions data. The school’s defense essentially amounts to this: “Just because we accidentally gave you all that info last time doesn’t mean we’ll do it again now.” [Arkansas Democrat-Gazette]
