It's all coming together for the Marshal of the Supreme Court power grab. [National Law Journal] * Panama Papers principals sue to stop Netflix movie based on their exploits. [Hollywood Reporter] * New York removes the loophole that would have ended state criminal prosecutions based on federal pardons. [NBC News] * Exxon will face a bench trial on claims that it defrauded the public over the risks of climate change.
