On News, Rumors, Gossip, Etc.

  • Law

As was so astutely pointed out by a commenter yesterday morning, the blog has had a lot more news and etc. lately than it has had rumors and gossip. When this blog started up, we warned you that we would probably not be able to live up to our predecessors–especially in terms of rumors and gossip. We’ve done our best though to keep the news and etc. posts going because of the opportunity it gives the legal community to discuss and comment on what is going on in Las Vegas. Fostering that feeling of a legal community was part of the reason this blog was started.

The blog continues to get more and more traffic. With a little help from a mention at Above the Law yesterday, we had one of our busiest days yet with almost 1300 site views. Would we love to have more rumors and gossip? You bet! But as we’ve mentioned before, we can’t post juicy rumors and gossip without your support. (Is this starting to sound too much like an NPR funding drive?) Please drop us a line if you’ve got something to share. Or, if you prefer, just leave your anonymous tip in the comments. Do you have a great idea for a post or want to be a guest poster? Let us know. Want your firm to be the focus of a firm spotlight? Let us know. Got a scenario you want us to present as a job tip? Send it in. Has your firm started prepping you for extra big or small bonuses this year? We wanna know. Is a partner, or better yet an associate, in your office getting ready to run for district judge? Please share.

Now, please sit back and enjoy several comments which are sure to have the juiciest rumors and gossip yet…

Anyone find it odd that Miley got to sentence the bird decapitator guy? Wasn't it Miley's husband who abused their family dog a year or so ago? Seems like maybe she should have recused herself.

And by the way, that bird decapitator guy, what a dumbass!

What's the O/U that if you look at Teixeira more closely, you find he also likes playing with fire and has had persistent bedwetting problem?

If they were my clients, I would have gotten them off. Hey-OH!

What I miss the most is the ATMS bashing. Seems like that's gone quiet lately. Are they finally treating their associates better? Or have the associates just accepted their lot in life?

But in all seriousness, this blog has been awesome lately. It's one of the first sites I check in the morning. Even without the gossip I still enjoy it. Keep up the good work!

Let's talk about Boyd. Students, professors, externships, whatever. Just seems like we haven't had a thread about Boyd in ages.
