OSCAR: I hate a friendly divorce. A lawyer is never entirely comfortable with a friendly divorce, any more than a good mortician wants to finish his job and then have the patient sit up on the table.
Jean Kerr (1922–2003) American author and playwright [b. Bridget Jean Collins]

A quotation from Abraham Lincoln
There is a vague popular belief that lawyers are necessarily dishonest. I say vague, because when we consider to what extent confidence and honors are reposed in and conferred upon lawyers by the people, it appears improbable that their impression of dishonesty is very distinct and vivid. Yet the impression is common, almost universal. Let no young man choosing the law for a calling for a moment yield to the popular belief — resolve to be honest at all events; and if in your own judgment you cannot be an honest lawyer, resolve to be honest without being a lawyer. Choose some other occupation, rather than one in the choosing of which you do, in advance, consent to be a knave.
Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) American lawyer, politician, US President (1861-65)
Speech (1850), Notes for a Law Lecture (fragment)More about this quote: wist.info/lincoln-abraham/8356…

As a general rule never take your whole fee in advance, nor any more than a small retainer. When fully paid beforehand, you are more than a common mortal if you can feel the same interest in the case, as if something was still in prospect for you, as well as for your client. And when you lack interest in the case the job will very likely lack skill and diligence in the performance.

Richard Daynard — the same #lawyer who secured a $206 billion #settlement from the tobacco industry is now taking on online sports bookies #DraftKings and #FanDuel.
The lawsuit also names the #NFL and its data partner, #GeniusSports, for providing innumerable stats to #sportsbooks that enable myriad addictive in-game #gambling schemas & #bets on nearly every player movement.

But I've seen some outside of an educational context as well. This one is absolutely horrific. It's another case of a #lawyer using an LLM to generate #court filings of one type or another, without even checking its output to see if the brief makes sense, cites actual case #law, etc.
This is a #sanctions order from a #judge in this particular case. It is gripping reading.
https://cases.justia.com/federal/district-courts/mississippi/msndce/1:2024cv00074/49169/79/0.pdfIn short: the lawyer was caught submitting briefs with "hallucinated" #citations, either to cases that did not exist, or to cases that were unrelated to the legal point the citation was being used to uphold. An opposing #counsel contacted their firm about such an incorrect citation, and the firm did some cleanup, did some continuing legal education, instituted an "AI" policy, instructed the #attorney about what was forbidden, etc. And then that attorney ... just kept on doing it. Even after judges started noticing problems in submissions, this lawyer just kept doing it.
It was so bad that it basically caused the #implosion of the law firm.
Incredible.

…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.

Back in 2018, Beaver Lake Cree filed for an #AdvancedCostOrder - #ACO - to secure funds from #Alberta and #Canada in order to continue accessing #justice for their #TreatyRights case, a case which will protect their people and territory from further expansion of the Alberta #TarSands and other #ResourceExtraction industries if successful. But, the cost of litigation for a case this momentous was more than the #FirstNation could front. That’s where the ACO comes in.
After six years, and reaching the #SupremeCourt of Canada ( #SCC ) — #BeaverLakeCree Nation will now receive $1.5 million annually from Alberta to continue their Treaty rights case!
The decision for a yearly contribution is a welcome relief, allowing the Beaver Lake #Cree Nation to move their case forwards while managing costs across their community needs.

"In some cases, the #business might repeatedly depreciate the same asset.
“What you do is things like, you’ve depreciated the asset in one entity, so now the basis is zero,” said Mark Luscombe, a Wolters Kluwer #tax #lawyer... “If you sold it, you’d have a big gain and you don’t have any more #depreciation. You instead sell it to a related party so you can start the depreciation all over again.”"
