Morning Docket: 10.30.24

* David Boies thinks the Supreme Court doesn't want a Bush v. Gore redux and the brutal reputation hit that carried. Which would be the prudent response of a credible institution, but after Dobbs, and Bruen, and Trump... some men (and one woman) just want to watch the world burn. [National Law Journal] * Supporting his theory, the Supreme Court just declined to enter the fray to remove RFK Jr from state ballots, meaning Trump's new brain worm buddy will continue splitting votes. [Law360] * Jones Day is back on the MAGA train officially, putting in the hours to disenfranchise battleground state voters. [Bloomberg Law News] * Lawyer disciplined for sending threatening letters to schools over COVID measures. [LegalCheek] * Kamala Harris's law school -- UC San Francisco -- sees an applicant surge. [Reuters] * Interesting look at Susman's approach to getting young attorneys meaningful trial experience. [Litigation Daily] * Lawyer based her career off Bull Durham and it sorta works. [ABA Journal]
