Morning Docket

Morning Docket: 10.28.19

* The drama at WeWork has resulted in huge amounts of legal work for several top law firms. Maybe the firms will get free office space along with their fees. [American Lawyer] * A new lawsuit alleges that Southwest Airlines pilots hid a video camera in an airplane lavatory and streamed the video from the cockpit. Sounds like a weird new Mile High Club... [Washington Post] * A 78-year-old woman has been sentenced to 22 years in prison for the attempted murder of her own lawyer. Her criminal defense attorney is one brave person. [AP News] * Steve Bannon is expected to testify against Roger Stone at the latter's upcoming trial for federal charges. [National Law Journal] * Arrests have been made for the murder of Rachelle Bergeron, the New York attorney who served as the acting attorney general of the island of Yap. [BBC] * Retired Justice Anthony Kennedy was awarded the Liberty Medal yesterday for efforts to promote education about the Constitution. The award comes with a $100,000 prize — hope he's not jealous that RBG won a $1,000,000 award last week. [Philadelphia Inquirer]
