If we are introducing ourselves: Pretty generic Boston-area lawyer. Try cases now and again. Bake and mope occasionally.

Sometimes write for Bullshit Hunting about obtaining and analyzing public records, to do stuff like identify shipwreck victims or fight wrongful convictions or whatever.

A second one: Don’t even try to read Ulysses until you have listened to it first.

This is what I am going to think every time a bill is rejected for “(lawyers performing) paralegal activity.”

I know it’s the most obvious thing in the world but it’s really sad that so many people have absolutely no desires or dreams in life except to accumulate money and our entire world is becoming a fucking pit because of it

My daughter was very upset by the ending. She won’t even talk about it.

It’s so hard, because the really good ones…it’s not like they’re replaceable.

My original assistant at this firm, I’d just send her something and say “could you finalize?” And she’d proof, grab the exhibits, make sure the formatting made sense, update the caption and do a cover letter.

NYT wrote a 2,400 word story abt Todd Blanche without mentioning that he personally ordered the arrest of Newark Mayor @rasjbaraka.bsky.social, and as such is deeply implicated in @replamonica.bsky.social case.

The front page of a NYT story, titled, "Part Enabler, Part Buffer: the Bind of the Justice Dept's No. 2"

“A declaration is an affidavit that hasn’t been notarized, when you don’t want to confuse out-of-state lawyers from places where that distinction matters.”

I have three motions that need to be served or filed while I am in trial, so, being not an asshole (and knowing the associates are going to be scrambling) I am getting them done ahead of time.

My secretary, however, hates me.

Me, to my secretary: Please update the caption and certificates of service on this and gather the deposition pages we need as exhibits.

My secretary: Sends six emails to me, associate, raising issues such as “is there a cover motion,” “but what are the exhibit numbers” “what’s a declaration?”

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

On this #IndigenousPeoplesDay I'd like to draw attention to the western #Alaska storm that is causing whole houses to float away into waters that will make you hypothermic in no time, especially around the town of Kotzebue. The latest on Fbook says the Coast Guard is there now.

Espy @esp1371.bsky.social · 1d

There is a major storm with high winds causing severe flooding on SW Alaska near the Bering Sea and the Yukon Delta. This follows severe flooding in NW Alaska in Kotzebue earlier this week. A lot of native villages are going to need a lot of help and you know it's not coming from the feds.

Very high water in Quinhagak as well.
