Morning Docket

Morning Docket: 12.29.22

* Proskauer sues its former COO claiming trade secret theft. I guess he stole the magical "real law" that the firm offers its clients. [American Lawyer] * Bed Bath & Beyond brings in new chief legal officer who likely looks nice out of the box but will inexplicably stop working in six months. [Corporate Counsel] * CNN profiles "little-known lawyer" and it's Doug Letter. Apparently CNN's new management assumes its audience doesn't get out much. [CNN] * Prosecutors seek 6 year sentence for Varsity Blues ringleader. But if it comes time to pick a prison, he has an in with the crew team at FCI Fort Dix so he should be fine. [Reuters] * Another law school student group wants the legal right to discriminate against LGBTQ+ people citing its deeply held religious convictions as... a loose confederation of "Judeo-Christian" members calling themselves the Free Exercise Coalition. There have been more blatantly manufactured lawsuits in history, but this is up there. [NHPR]
