But you miss 100 percent of the shots you don't take to a pliant judge in Amarillo. [Politico] * Cravath's Faiza Saeed explains the value of treating board members like human beings and keeping them calm and informed before their fears and insecurities get the best of them. [Financial Times] * After some fits and starts, California moves ahead with plans to adopt Kaplan bar exam. [ABA Journal] * Hunter Biden drops his revenge porn suit against Fox News... though it seems as though he might be refiling it soon. [Reuters] * And here come the conviction challenges following the Judge Kindred report. [Bloomberg Law News] * Many state court systems knocked out by Crowdstrike flub. PACER still runs on ENIAC so it survived unscathed. [Law360] * MoFo Miami going hybrid.
