Morning Docket: 12.10.19

* A GOP lawyer brought files to an impeachment hearing yesterday in grocery bags. Pretty sure the bags weren't from Whole Foods... [New York Post] * A lawyer is saying that booze led him to swindle elderly clients out of millions. Sounds like this attorney is taking his defense from Jamie Foxx. [Albany Times Union] * The Supreme Court has declined to review a Kentucky law that requires doctors to play the sound of a fetal heartbeat to individuals seeking abortions. [Slate] * Attorney General Barr has rescheduled a Justice Department holiday party that was to occur at the Trump International Hotel. I guess my invitation got lost in the mail... [Washington Post] * An appellate court seemed skeptical Monday about an Emoluments Clause lawsuit filed against President Trump. [NPR] * A mistrial has been declared in a murder case after the defense lawyer was struck by a car. Hopefully, this does not give criminal defendants any ideas. [Boston Globe]
