[The Am Law Daily] * In-house counsel shouldn't be too friendly with the business-side. Too bad the trend is pointing the exact opposite direction.

If the rest of this campaign is any indication, this revelation will... probably boost Trump 5 points. [WiseLawNY] * Yesterday at the White Collar Crime Institute conference, Deputy AG Sally Yates fleshed out the ramifications of the Department of Justice's focus on prosecuting individuals for corporate crime.

[The Hill] * Minnie Driver's neighbors accuse her of throwing paintbombs at their house in a lawsuit. The lawsuit is obviously frivolous... Minnie Driver hasn't left a significant mark on anything in years. [People]
