Morning Docket: 03.26.15

* If you thought Squire Patton Boggs would be able to meet its projection of $1 billion in combined revenue after its merger, you'd be wrong. If you thought the firm would be able to meet its projection of having more than 1,500 lawyers after its merger, you'd also be wrong. [National Law Journal] * Use this slideshow to compare how California law schools are doing in terms of job placement. Stanford was on top, and Golden Gate was dead last. Bonus: If you strip out school-funded jobs, the numbers look even worse. [Sacramento Business Journal] * Uh... oops? Keila Ravelo, the ex-Willkie Farr partner who was accused of stealing millions of dollars from two of her former firms, is now at the center of questions over settlements in credit-card cases she worked on. [New York Law Journal via ABA Journal] * "Please help us heal." David Messerschmitt's widow is begging for information about the DLA Piper associate's death. The case is being actively investigated, and police believe the person of interest who was seen on surveillance footage is a woman. [Legal Times] * In case you missed it yesterday, U.S. Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl was charged with desertion and misbehavior before the enemy. The first charge could result in up to five years in jail, while the second could result in a life sentence. Yikes!
