Morning Docket: 11.01.19
* The New Jersey Supreme Court has disbarred an attorney who charged a widow $120,000 for work that should have cost no more than $15,000.

Looks like it ain't Mueller time anymore... [The Hill] * A Brooklyn pimp has argued in court that he did not kill his girlfriend, but merely chopped up her body. Sounds like a defense Robert Durst would make. [New York Post] * A former Manhattan Assistant U.S. Attorney is a main contender to be Rudy Giuliani's lawyer. [CNN] * NYC's new top lawyer says that going after Trump is a top priority. [New York Post] * Two Midwestern firms have merged to form a 400-lawyer firm. That's a lot of Midwestern charm! [ABA Journal]
