    “Are You a Lawyer?” by Duane Anderson

    She asked if I was a lawyer
    because she said I looked like one,
    but I told her no,
    not knowing if I was just given
    a compliment or an insult, not knowing
    if I was standing at the doorstop
    of good versus evil?

    I should have returned the favor,
    and asked just how familiar
    was she with lawyers.
    Had she been jailed multiple times,
    requiring their talents to get her out?
    A question never asked, an answer never given,
    but life continued on for each of us.

  2. Concerning the legalisation of #pluginsolar in the UK, there is one question open (for us) and maybe there is a #lawyer here who can answer it:

    The UK "legalized" #pluginpv but didn't change any law concerning the right of #tenants to use it. The guidance simply says "ask your #landlord”.

    Is the use of pluginsolar now subject to the whims of the landlord or does UK law give the tenant a right to install it, as its a generally legal and regulated technical device?

  3. Der Jurist

    Kind fragt:
    "Kann die Dampflok auch neben den Gleisen fahren?"

    Der Jurist denkt,
    seufzt,
    denkt,
    kratzt sich am Kinn,
    sagt:

    "Kommt ganz darauf an..."

  4. On 4 March 1999: #HarryBlackmun, American #lawyer, #jurist and 100th Supreme Court #Justice (1970-94) who authored the Court's opinion in Roe v. Wade, died at 90.

  5. …If confirmed, #EdMartin would…direct an office that prosecuted advisers to #Trump — including Martin allies #RogerStone & #MikeFlynn — as well as Dem atty Gregory B. Craig in past federal investigations into #Russia #influence ops.

    …Martin has posed a challenge for the #Senate #Judiciary Cmte, not only bc of his lack of experience as a prosecutor or trial #lawyer but also bc of the volume of his statements on social media & in traditional media, & the unusual extent of his omissions.

  6. New filing says a key #witness in the #Trump #ClassifiedDocuments case retracted false #testimony after retaining own #lawyer.

    A witness who was represented by a lawyer representing Trump’s 2 #CoDefendants #WaltNauta & #CarlosDeOliveira, & paid for by Trump PAC, changed his grand jury testimony after firing the lawyer & getting #IndependentCounsel.

  8. #Appellate Nibs

    Today kicks off what will be a weekly series of short appellate practice tips offered for fun and conversation, mostly aimed at the newer #lawyer and #lawstudent crowd, as well as practice-oriented #lawprofs. Many will concern #legalwriting or #oralargument. Some will be more general thoughts on #law practice.

    Quick Notes:

    (1) My work is chiefly in the Oregon state appellate courts and in the 9th Circuit. Rules of practice vary. So will your experience, so please chime in!
