Morning Docket: 10.12.20

[Oregonian] * A woman has been charged with damaging the car of a lawyer representing a former cop allegedly involved in the death of George Floyd. [Minneapolis Star Tribune] * A federal judge has dismissed the Trump Campaign's lawsuit concerning election procedures in Pennsylvania. [AP] * An ethics board has approved of a New York lawyer withdrawing from a representation involving a court appearance out of fear of contracting COVID-19. [Bloomberg Law] * A woman was cited over the weekend for allegedly drunk driving at over four times the legal limit and crashing into a bridge causing a traffic nightmare. Maybe she'll get four times the normal punishment... [Fox News]
