@CJGRISHAM I think there are cases out of the liberal northeast that say stopping someone simply because they have a gun is a Fourth Amendment violation.

Here's what the retards in the comments to this video don't understand: 1. I had three miles left on a 26 mile bike ride and this was my first interaction with LE. 2. I'm not required to have a license to ride a bike or carry a rifle in Texas. 3. I carry a rifle on my bike rides for weight and resistance training (as well as self-defense). 4. If you support cops harassing gun owners just because someone made a phone call, you've been brainwashed against the constitution by the police state. 5. I dont give a shit what a "normal" person does. I'm CJ and NO ONE IN THE WORLD has my life experiences. 6. Go suck your cop cock elsewhere.

One of these days, cops will stop fucking with gun owners, especially 2A attorneys. Until then, I'll keep standing up to them.

@MurdockJDF I used Claude for the first time on an amicus brief a couple of weeks ago. It seemed better at the broad doctrinal level than anything else.

I’ve found CoCounsel useful for preliminary research (identify every case in X jurisdiction where the court considered a challenge under Y law) but terrible for analysis (what is the outcome under this nuanced fact pattern) or argument (cite authorities for Z proposition).
Rob Freund@RobertFreundLaw

More lawyers misusing AI (Westlaw's CoCounsel): 6th Cir. opinion today focuses on criminal defense attorney who "used artificial intelligence to draft the briefs in this case and then filed them without properly verifying the cited legal authorities." "The first tell" that AI use was in play was the file name of the principal brief: "CoCounsel Skill Results." "CoCounsel is the name of Westlaw’s internal artificial-intelligence platform." "Further suspicions arose" when the briefs included three fake quotations and several misrepresented case holdings. Lawyer admitted he directed a staff member to upload district court docs to CoCounsel to create a first draft of the brief. He said this was his first time using Westlaw CoCounsel. Court notes that the fact that the cases are real, and only the quotes were fake, "does not absolve him." "The fact remains that Howe committed inexcusable transgressions during the appellate phase of this case. And that misconduct had consequences." Sanctions: -Lawyer will not be compensated under Criminal Justice Act for time spent on the appeal. -Referred to Chief Judge of 6th Cir. to consider disciplinary proceedings. -Opinion to be served on E.D. Ky. chief judge and clerk and Disciplinary Clerk for Kentucky Bar Association. -Lawyer removed from further representation in the case.

@MorosKostas I have argued overbreadth in the CT state parks cases, but the Second Circuit forced the law into as-applied challenges.

@IanSpeir I'll be damned. I practice law here in Colorado as well. Just logged in. Here's the text of their "announcement." This is indefensible.

Ian Speir@IanSpeir·
Colorado is now requiring lawyers in the State, as a condition of logging into its court e-filing system, to promise not to cooperate with federal authorities in enforcing federal immigration law. Please understand: - I do not practice immigration law. - I do not practice criminal law. - Nothing about my civil practice has anything to do with this. And yet because I cannot log into the State's official e-filing system without saluting The Resistance, I now cannot represent my clients, file lawsuits, access cases, file documents in existing cases, etc. If I click "Decline," it kicks me out of the system. I must click "Accept" to access the system and continue representing my civil clients -- again, in cases that have absolutely nothing to do with immigration law or policy. I've read SB 25-276 (the law referred to below). It does not regulate me as a private attorney or any of the clients I represent in civil matters. This is outrageous draconian overreach. I have ethical obligations to my clients to represent them competently. My existing cases have running deadlines that I must attend to. Judges issue orders in my cases that I must follow. If I don't click "Accept" in order to access the State's e-filing system, I will harm my clients, torpedo my practice, and probably commit malpractice. So, I have no choice. I'm clicking "Accept" under protest.

I don’t care whether you’re Republican, Democrat, conservative, or liberal, but I don’t think a Harvard pedigree or a federal circuit judgeship makes you well qualified for SCOTUS on its own. It is merely evidence that you might be too divorced from the realities of every day life,
Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth)@adamscochran

Lmfao sit the fuck down. She went to Harvard and served as a circuit judge. You went to Chapman University and are an ambulance chasing personal injury firm. I don’t think KBJ is an exceptionally strong Justice but she is qualified and is 10,000x more capable than you. You did not know peers like her in your class, because people that capable didn’t go to Chapman. The sheer audacity! Lol! 😂😂

@atlanticesque No, we want them to actually deal with issues of national importance that affect millions of people instead of issues no one, except lawyers, gives a damn about

If I were a NYC criminal defense lawyer defending someone accused of breach of peace or any other minor misdemeanor fighting, I would be putting my case on the trial list, filing a motion to dismiss for selective prosecution attaching this as an exhibit, and putting this in front of a jury.

NYPD wins 3-2. First victory over FDNY in a decade. Game was very clean after until dying seconds, when this happened at the final whistle.

DUI defense attorney breakdown here: 1. A breathalyzer does not show drug induced impairment, only alcohol. 2. Tiger refused urine or blood tests for one of three reasons: (1) he was on drugs and didn't want to be caught, (2) he didn't understand what the consequences of refusal would be, or (3) he was too dazed from the crash. 3. Standard field sobriety exercises are one of the biggest folk fictions of modern policing. They were developed by a psychologist for her thesis without input from any medical professionals, and they are incredibly easy to rip apart in cross-examination. Officers are usually not trained to modify them for legitimate physical conditions like medical conditions or even Tiger being involved in the accident. And how many people do you see standing on one leg on the street corner or walking a straight line with one foot in front of another? Tiger did himself a disfavor by refusing urine or blood tests, but I am not hopeless about his case. A good defense attorney can offer explanations 2 or 3 from above, and persuade a jury. It won't be easy though.

🚨 BREAKING: TIGER WOODS ARRESTED FOR DUI — BLOWS 0.00 AFTER HIGH-SPEED SUV FLIP… SOMETHING DOESN’T ADD UP Tiger Woods was just arrested after the crash, but here’s what’s raising questions: • Officers say he showed signs of impairment • Breathalyzer result: 0.00 • Still arrested for DUI • Then refused urinalysis test No alcohol. No clear explanation. Still charged with DUI + refusal. That’s where it gets strange. So what shows “impairment” with a 0.00… and why refuse the one test that could explain it?
