Morning Docket: 11.16.06
* O.J.’s “confession”? The trial of the century takes a twisted PR turn, years later. [CNN] * President Bush intends to renominate, to the lame duck Senate, some of the judicial nominees who were not previously confirmed, before the Democrats swept the midterm elections. Interesting strategy. [

Legos Explain the Rule 803 Hearsay Exceptions Better Than Most Law School Professors
This educational video, which explains the hearsay exceptions set forth in Federal Rule of Evidence 803, is awesome. It boasts great production values: the music, the colors, and, of course, the Legos. Our favorite part is when the little Lego woman pukes out a copious stream of dark green vomit. How did they do that? […] - Sponsored

The Misadventures of a UVA Gunner

Professor Jack Chin Can't Break Boards With His Bare Hands
And he wants to be damn sure you know that. Here’s a fun little video clip from The Daily Show. A quick intro, from the ATL reader who brought it to our attention: On a recent episode of The Daily Show, they discussed a proposal, by local politicians in Arizona, to “incentivize” citizens to vote.

Non-Sequiturs: 09.28.06
* We were taught growing up that when someone pays you a compliment, the appropriate response is gratitude. So thank you, QuizLaw! Unlike those grumpy feminists — e.g., Jessica Valenti, adversary of Ann Althouse — we soak up compliments graciously. And we enjoy being objectified. Toward that end, here’s a shirtless photo of us.

Phil Alito Made a Music Video?

Another Atypical Deposition
One of our finest moments in private practice took place during a deposition. We had been up the entire night before, along with the paralegal on the case, pulling documents and preparing deposition outline material for the partner. It was a critical deposition: the deposition of the plaintiff, a billionaire businessman (on the Forbes 400 […] -

Judge to Lawyer: "Just Go Ahead and Blow"
Earlier this month, we gave Nevada attorney William Caramagno a Lawyer of the Day award. What did he do to merit this honor? He showed up to court late — and, even better, drunk — to defend a client facing a kidnapping charge. A charge with a potential life sentence. How was the lawyer’s drunkenness […] - Sponsored

Not Your Typical Deposition
We sure are glad we never worked on any sexual harassment cases when we were in practice. The depositions can get pretty awkward. Check out this video: Yes, the video is a gag.
