I think The Office gods have been reading my blog entries and decided they’d give me an hour-long episode with very few legal issues. In last night’s episode, three main characters made significant career moves. Dwight received the manager promotion, Andy quit his job to pursue fame, and Jim decided to stay in Scranton rather than pitch his other business nationwide. These actions alone create very few legal issues for the company to address. Dwight’s promotion will eventually, of course, lead to all kinds of good legal issues to discuss.

Adam Smith, Esq. How Appealing. FP Legal Post. A move to close a discipline hearing into two lawyers who used to represent Conrad Black and his related companies is turning into a “waiver bandwagon,” as key companies indicate a willingness to forgo their right to solicitor-client privilege over critical legal documents that would allow the hearings to be held in public. “We want an open hearing,” stressed Phil Campbell, who represents Beth DeMerchant, at the Law Society of Upper Canada hearing. “There’s been a recent flurry of activity in the direction of waiver,” he told the three-member discipline panel on Thursday. Ms. DeMerchant and Darren Sukonick are accused of professional misconduct between 2000 and 2003. They are alleged to have acted in a conflict of interest when on behalf of Torys they represented Lord Black and other clients including Hollinger International Inc., and a number of related companies and individuals.
On Thursday, Mr. Mr. He said based on discussion with lawyers, of the six charges that Mr. Jim Middlemiss. The BLT: The Blog of Legal Times. Bench Memos. The IRS and its defenders in Halbig v.
Sebelius, one of several cases challenging IRS’s interpretation of the Affordable Care Act, have raised questions about whether Congress really meant to deny tax subsidies to taxpayers if their states didn’t set up insurance exchanges. As we shall see, this was one of several mechanisms to “encourage” states to set up exchanges by threatening their residents with the loss of benefits if they didn’t join the party. The central issue in Halbig, you’ll recall, is whether insurance plan tax subsidies established under 26 U.S.C. § 36B apply only to plans purchased on an exchange “established by the State,” as the statute says, or whether the subsidies also go to plans purchased on a federally-established exchange.
The IRS issued a regulation taking the latter point of view, roughly doubling the number of states in which plans will receive subsidies. At oral argument in March, the majority seemed to be leaning in favor of the challengers. 22 Tweets. 3 Geeks and a Law Blog.

Cutting and pasting from his last 3000 speeches, Attorney General Holder testified today before the House Judiciary Committee.
He repeated his standard lines in favor of cutting by half the minimum required sentences for drug dealers -- which, of course, he never actually identifies as "cutting by half the minimum required sentences for drug dealers. " Instead, he talks in roundabout language designed to obscure what's actually going on. Thus, he uses the always-a-good-tipoff set of phrases like "evidence-based," "commonsense change," and "tough and smart. " For right now, I want to highlight one thing Holder said that's simply not so. He stated (prudently tucked into his eighth paragraph) that the Smarter Sentencing Act "would give judges more discretion in determining appropriate sentences for people convicted of certain federal drug crimes.

I really like it, and I've now used it enough to write a full review. (I wrote a first look post while I was at ABA TECHSHOW two weeks ago.) As a litigator who works with Microsoft Word documents throughout the day, it is incredibly useful to have a sophisticated and full-featured version of Word on my iPad. Word for iPad has easily become one of the most important and useful apps on my iPad, and I suspect that many other attorneys will feel the same way.
The app has some limitations, and a few of them are big and I hope that they are addressed in a future update, but for 1.0 version of an app, Microsoft really did a great job. The code for Office for iPad and Office for Mac is shared, as the development platforms for both are very similar. :) The iPad work required us to create an all-new UI and to redesign the interface between UI and the internal logic.

At a meeting of all employees, Royal again complained about the conduct, which included smelling her over her head and when she exited the restroom. Royal was fired for “inappropriate behavior in the workplace” which, upon questioning at oral arguments, turned out to be slapping flies with excessive force and slamming a door. The big news is why.
