Morning Docket

Morning Docket: 11.08.24

* Diddy's team unhappy that grand jury witnesses are talking, worrying that the publicity hurts his chances to Finna Get Loose. [NewsNation] * Trump judge blocks immigration rule because the law allowing the government to choose to allow immigrants with citizen spouses to "into the United States" legally on parole while their status is processed couldn't support letting those people serve parole while their status is processed if they were already in the United States when the decision was made. It's like Textualism, but a game of Balderdash. [Law360] * OpenAI wins copyright suit over using material to train the model on the English language. [Bloomberg Law News] * Judge says his jurisdiction is just more sweary. [Roll on Friday] * Trump was never going to get jail time -- if the judge didn't put him in a cell for contempt for his behavior during the trial, he was never going to -- but now it's pretty much certain that this will be an all cash sentencing. [New York Law Journal] * It's a good time to be a partner who does deals that would otherwise violate the Sherman Act! [American Lawyer] * Firm leaders still convinced that generative AI will have a big impact on the profession. [Thomson Reuters]
