Morning Docket
Morning Docket: 09.04.15
* Not the most exciting law clerk story of the last couple days, but a federal clerk texting defense lawyers “as of 3:34 today you owe me a beer (or wine!)” right after they won a big motion from her judge was… unwise. [Blog of the Legal Times]
* The defense rests early in the Dewey trial, calling no witnesses in a move designed to express confidence. Hey, it’s not like these guys have wildly misjudged anything before. [Law360]
* Biglaw is splurging on cushy amenities for their offices. Is it helping net clients? [Wall Street Journal]
* But maybe the amenity Biglaw really needs is a place to sleep — Biglaw associates need to take more naps, you guys. If you want to know where to shop, there’s four places. There’s the Hammock Hut, that’s on Third… [Bloomberg View]
* Right-wing SCOTUS clerks landing plum jobs on Capitol Hill with help from Federalist Society connections. [National Law Journal]
* With Kim Davis jailed, her deputies waste no time assuring the public that they will be issuing same-sex marriage licenses. [Associated Press via MSN]
* Speaking of Kim Davis, if you were expecting her to receive a flood of donations from like-minded culture warriors through a GoFundMe account, think again. The website has had it up to here with bad publicity and has officially banned campaigns to fund people facing formal charges. [Addicting Info]
