St. Louis Rams

Morning Docket

Morning Docket: 03.12.21

* The CEO of Marvel claims his DNA was stolen from a water bottle during a deposition. This sounds like a pretty strange origin story... [Property Casualty 360] * The inspiration for a lawyer in the film Erin Brockovich has lost his law license. [Wrap] * A lawsuit about the departure of the St. Louis Rams to Los Angeles has been delayed until 2022. [NBC News] * Ghislaine Maxwell is allegedly selling her London home to pay for legal fees spent defending her criminal case related to Jeffrey Epstein. [Wall Street Journal] * The Indiana Attorney General is in hot water for allegedly receiving thousands of dollars for advisory roles. Guess he's having a hard time making ends meet on a government salary... [Indianapolis Star]

* SLU Law clinic threatens to sue the city of St. Louis if they try and shell out public dollars to keep the Rams in town. I'd sue if I had to watch the Rams every week too. [St. Louis Post-Dispatch] * How many law school applicants do we expect for the Fall? [The Faculty Lounge] * DMX's lawyer says his client didn't just up and rob a dude at gunpoint. Which is obviously true, because X Gonna Give It To Ya, not take it from ya. [Design & Trend] * The TL;DR here is that Elizabeth Wurtzel wants to be noticed. Double f**king newsflash. [Jezebel] * A spirited debate on where the FISA court went wrong. The crux of the argument is [REDACTED]. [Lawfare] * We're not above telling the good stories from time to time. Like this kid who went from homeless to NYU Law grad. [Patch] * Lawyer suspended for sexual conduct with a 17-year-old and blogging. Thankfully, not blogging about the sex. [Legal Profession Blog] * Jeopardy! gets a legal response when it wanted a science answer. [YouTube] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1R-B-BFQwng Frankly, the question (answer?) is kind of bulls**t. Consent is something that gets legislated and I've seen Game of Thrones -- those ages sound about right for that world. On the other hand, puberty is something that just happens. Unless you're a gymnast.
