Morning Docket: 11.30.23

* Supreme Court poised to kill off SEC in-house enforcement. Weird how they think administrative courts pose an affront to justice when they fine millionaire speculators but don't have a problem with it incarcerating pro se 3-year-olds. [NPR] * But at least the Court began from the premise that the Fifth Circuit is probably crazy. [Dorf on Law] * CFPB warns that AI vests too much power to a handful of tech CEOs. Yeah... but that won't last long. I've seen Ex Machina. [Law360] * Until the robot uprising though, several state insurance authorities are probing carriers using AI to make "discriminatory garbage in, discriminatory garbage out" coverage decisions. [Bloomberg Law News] * Preet Bharara wants the Justice Department to stop ghosting targets. Amazing how the perspective changes when you're representing folks on the other side of the table. [Reuters] * IPOs coming back. Time for firms that laid off all their corporate folks to wildly flail about. [Corporate Counsel] * Crowell enters the Eric Adams imbroglio. [Gothamist]
