Morning Docket: 05.07.24

* Trump making fist pumps from the defense table... another display of his team's crackerjack coaching! [Yahoo] * Biglaw brings in coaching to support attorneys with ADHD. Just remember to bill any time with the counselors in 6 minute increments with code 9000-020. [ABA Journal] * Ninth Circuit to hear case that blocked Idaho's "abortion trafficking" law. Turns out states with tough regulations can't control the situation when neighboring states have more lax restrictions. You'd think this would be a lesson in why "Chicago has tough gun laws but there's gun violence all the time" is a disingenuous argument but that requires an unheard of level of good faith. [Reuters] * Biglaw office gets modern with giant common gathering space and game rooms. [American Lawyer] * Wishful thinking? Lawyers expecting Supreme Court to leave semblance of Chevron intact. [Bloomberg Law News] * Resistance to "return-to-office" mandates head to court. [Washington Post] * The Times is asking attorneys for feedback on their use of AI. Help out their research... it helps the Times devote coverage space to something besides the "Joe Biden so old..." jokes that make up roughly 90 percent of the paper. [New York Times]
