Morning Docket

Morning Docket: 02.13.17

* Authorities charge the Panama Papers lawyers with money laundering. On the other hand, the firm's Twitter account denies any wrongdoing, and I think we all know Twitter never misleads anyone. [Am Law Daily] * An intellectual property suit over Kim Kardashian and ugly sweaters and that's the first time "intellectual" and "Kardashian" have made it into the same sentence. [Law360] * Shady new strategy concocted to fast track foreclosures on the homes of unsuspecting seniors. Just in case you'd gotten the misperception that lawyers were good people. [Law.com] * Kramer Levin renews its lease, but it's cutting back about 50,000 square feet. [Wall Street Journal] * Where does Judge Gorsuch stand on intellectual property matters? [National Law Journal] * Puzder slapped with antitrust class action over alleged schemes to depress wages. Seems like the kind of guy who should be in charge of defending labor in America. [Courthouse News Service]
