Morning Docket
Morning Docket: 12.27.22
* One of Donald Trump’s lawyers says the January 6 Committee’s criminal referrals against the former president are “pretty much worthless.” Suppose we’ll soon see what the Justice Department thinks about that. [The Hill]
* Meanwhile, Justice Clarence Thomas and his election-denier wife Ginni Thomas got off scot-free in the January 6 Committee’s investigation of the insurrection. Why? Because “[w]hen you’re a justice, they let you do it.” [Slate via How Appealing]
* The reported merger between Hogan Lovells and Shearman & Sterling is in such “early” stages that Shearman partners are already heading for the exits with news of a “weighted” equity vote. [American Lawyer]
* A nice win before SCOTUS kills affirmative action: According to the ABA, this year’s class of entering law students is the most diverse in history, with about 37% of first-years identifying as racial or ethnic minorities. [Reuters]
* A jury convicted rapper Tory Lanez of three felonies in the shooting of hip-hop star Megan Thee Stallion. He’s facing more than 20 years in prison thanks to the guilty verdict. [Associated Press]
* Have you done literally anything in your life? You may be entitled to compensation. Personal injury attorneys have taken over our televisions, and CNN has an interesting piece on how exactly that happened over the years. [CNN]

* “This isn’t some game. You are screwing with the work of the president of the United States.” This is what John Dowd reportedly said in response to special counsel Robert Mueller when the possibility of issuing a subpoena for President Trump to appear before a grand jury was raised during a meeting with the president’s legal team. [Washington Post]
* Unnamed Republican lawmakers have drafted articles of impeachment against Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein, and he seems pretty pissed. Not only did he refuse to comment on documents that “nobody has the courage to put their name on,” but he countered that “the Department of Justice is not going to be extorted.” [USA Today]
* Per ex-White House aides, Ivanka Trump is “involved in everything,” so why hasn’t she been called in for questioning by Robert Mueller yet? Not only would the president “go nuclear,” but Mueller knows that “trying to interview Ivanka Trump would be like lighting a match to the highly combustible Donald Trump.” [Politico]
* For what it’s worth, Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein isn’t a fan of the fact that the Senate has been taking its sweet time to confirm his would-be colleagues at the Justice Department. The Criminal, Civil, Civil Rights, and Environment and Natural Resources Divisions have leaders in vote-pending purgatory. [National Law Journal]
* Before he had clients like Donald Trump and Sean Hannity, Michael Cohen was a personal injury attorney, and some of his clients allegedly staged their car “accidents” in an effort to commit insurance fraud. Some of Cohen’s clients are alleged to have not even been in the vehicle that was in the “accident” being litigated. [Rolling Stone]
