Man, just think of the long-arm statute you'd need...

On this episode of Forum Shopping for Bankruptcy Practitioners, we take a look at Ceres' COMI statute and how it relates to section 1507 of the bankruptcy code

Dude, if space had a good homestead exemption I might start launching clients.

Sorry, space sovereignty is corporate, we only do reorganizations in the asteroid belt

 There are certain schools that have a reputation for being more generous with scholarships than others.

But seriously, don't go.

This Year’s Ross Essay Contest Is a Haiku Throwdown: Winners Get a Share of $5,000 in Prize Money

In this year's Ross Essay Contest, we're looking for 17 syllables that address one of these five topics: Innovation, Inspiration, Law Practice, On Being a Lawyer or the U.S. Supreme Court.
Like every year, only ABA members are eligible to submit their haiku (an unrhymed poem with three lines containing five, seven, and five syllables respectively) for a chance at a share of $5,000 in prize money. Contestants should keep in mind that they cannot enter as often as they want; there is a five-haiku limit. The haiku you submit also cannot have appeared in a printed book, magazine or journal (sold or given away), or in any online journal that presents edited periodic content.
The submission deadline is 5 p.m. CT on Friday, Sept. 28

Seriously, a T2 school is never the top of anything.
Not even the top of the shitpile, because Cooley has that locked down.

Hey, Cooley is apparently more highly ranked than pretty much everyone besides Yale and Stanford based on library square footage alone

Hobson's comment probably doesn't trigger 8.02(a), but am I the only attorney who thinks that practicing attorneys should not publicly criticize judges (even if the judges are being stupid)? I think its unseemly to publicly criticize a judge or court. Maybe I'm just prudish, I dunno.

Christ, what happened to you?
