Judge of the Day: He Wanted Them to Touch His Nuts
This is the most bizarre story we’ve seen in quite some time. And we always appreciate the opportunity to use our State Judges Are Clowns tag. (Federal all the way, baby.) So, Isaac H. Stoltzfus is a judge from Intercourse — yes, Intercourse — Pennsylvania. As for the rest of the story…. Eh, res ipsa […] - Sponsored

Northwestern Law Student Emails Hand-Job Offer to Entire Law School
You know how cars can be equipped with an ignition interlock device that prevents the engine from being started if the driver is intoxicated? Can we get one of those thingies for the personal computer, Blackberry, or any other device people can use to send email? Because I’m pretty sure a Northwestern Law student could […]

Lawyer of the Day: The Sexting District Attorney - 'You may be hot... but I am the prize!'
Everyone thinks of Midwesterners as so wholesome. Perhaps this perception is unfounded. For example, why are Wisconsin lawyers so darn horny? First there were the Biglaw Bad Boys, accused of sexual assault. Now we’re hearing about a government lawyer — an elected district attorney, in fact — who apparently let his libido get the best […] -

Ode to an Adjunct Professor
Craigslist might have had to close down its adult section, but its Missed Connections area is still alive and kicking. And that’s a good thing, at least for one UC Hastings law student who had one stimulating lecture with an adjunct law professor teaching intellectual property. The lady was quite taken by the guest lecturer, […] -

Accuser of Porn-Posing Canadian Judge Gets Fired
We don’t normally cross international borders to find judges to write about; there are enough colorful characters in the U.S. judiciary. But when the jurist in question has appeared in pornography that made its way on to the interwebs, we make an exception. There are some updates in the tale of Madam Justice Lori Douglas, […] -

Craigslist Loses Its Eroticism
The “censored” box that Craigslist put over the “Adult Services” section of its website may have been a last hurrah before capitulating to demands from attorneys general that the section be eliminated. Today, the censored box disappeared from the site. The “adult services” section is gone, but two new services sections appeared: “cycle” and “marine.” […] - Sponsored

Lawyer Tells Client She Can Talk to Dead Spouse -- But That's Not What Got Her in Trouble
Full disclosure: I belong to the South Park school of thought, which says that claiming you can speak to dead people makes you a candidate for Biggest Douche in the Universe.

Porn-Posing Canadian Judge Puts Away the Gavel -- For Now
Yesterday we wrote about Madam Justice Lori Douglas, a Canadian judge in Manitoba who, in her pre-robescent days, apparently posed for nude pictures — while engaged in such activities as bondage, sex toy play, and oral sex. These photographs apparently made their way on to an interracial porn website called DarkCavern.com (without Douglas’s knowledge or […] -

Judge of the Day: Oh, Oh, Oh... Canada!
Up in Canada, judges have no problem with cameras in the courtroom. As Canadian Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin explained in a recent discussion with Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Canada’s high court has had cameras in the courtroom for over 20 years, and they haven’t caused any problems. [FN1] Some Canadian judges don’t have a problem […] -

Lawyerly Lairs: Did a Realtor Use an Attorney's House for Gay Sexcapades?
This story — which could also qualify as a Lawsuit of the Day — is fine, funny Friday fodder. The Minneapolis Star-Tribune reports: Adam Bunge, an attorney, and his wife, Sarah Bunge, a Lutheran pastor, put their Maple Grove home up for sale and headed off to London this year for a four-month “work holiday.” […]

A Pair of Craigslist Jobs: Getting Screwed (Chicago and D.C.)
Ah, Craigslist — grand repository and central clearinghouse for crappy legal jobs. The job postings, seeking expensively-trained lawyers at wages that a Starbucks barista would find insulting, just keep on coming. The latest laughable listing — which brings laughter, but also tears — comes from Chicago: We are looking for a recent law school graduate […] -

For example, if a lawyer is accused of wrongdoing, we cover the allegations, and then the charges are dropped, we’d like to write about the clearing of that person’s name. (If you’re aware of […] -

An Israeli court has convicted an Arab man of rape on very interesting grounds.
