Morning Docket: 03.15.17

* Congratulations to newly appointed Loyola Chicago dean Michael Kaufman. [Law.com] * Department of Justice is set to announce today charges in the case revolving around the hack of Yahoo accounts. Of course, it's probably your fault if you use Yahoo for anything but fantasy sports. [CNN] * One contract attorney racked up 6,905 hours (and $1.5 million in billables) on a single shareholder lawsuit. Too bad he was disbarred in the 80s. [Wall Street Journal] * Wait for it... wait for it. Nope, Rachel Maddow's scoop on Donald Trump's taxes, wasn't really worth it. [New York Times] * White nationalist group, the National Policy Institute -- that'd be Richard Spencer's think tank, has been stripped of its tax-exempt status. [Washington Post] * The European Court of Justice ruled a workplace headscarf ban might not be discriminatory. Ummm, okay? [BBC News]
