Still not 'duly elected' Arizona Governor -- Kari Lake, TFG Endorsee
In Richer v. Lake , the Ariz. Super. Ct. orders the parties to meet to discuss plaintiff's discovery, mediation, and scheduling. I am becoming more convinced Lake thought she could file this and demand a quickie hearing before Richer had time to marshal evidence of his damages. The judge appears not...

A defendant's insurer gave money to the plaintiff in exchange for dropping the suit.
That sounds like a ... (*checks notes*) ... settlement.
It sounds like the settlement agreement didn't contain a sufficiently robust no-disparagement clause.

John Eastman disbarment hearing
IANAL but I’m pretty sure privilege rests with the client, not the attorney. Too also: This is why the court (and the prosecutor) want to nail down whether he's going to assert an advice-of-counsel defense. Because if he asserts counsel (e.g., Eastman) advised him to do something, that waives the a...

"For completeness," Eastman (like any other bar-court defendant) may seek review in the review department. And then seek relief in SCOCA. And then (in theory*) seek review in SCOTUS. Too also: The court fined Eastman a cool $10k: Specifically, the court recommends that Eastman pay $5,000 i...

It was a sit down show (I think that's the term, i.e. a long-term engagement, not a national touring show) so it would have had it's own cast like the Broadway, West End, and however many tours they had going on.

Post Roe Abortion Problems
US anti-abortion activists, including allies of Donald Trump, have a strategy to ban abortion nationwide - one that bypasses Congress and the American people. It's a plan that hinges on Mr Trump's re-election in November and the use of a little-known 19th Century law. Comstock will be raised before...

How can Lake demand such records when discovery is skipped by requesting default judgment? Will their be a separate discovery phase for the jury trial requested?

I read those snippets of the motion.
Very feisty. It reads like it some sort of attempted 4-D chess move to force the court to rule against Richer because Richer won't be able to promptly prove up his damages.
And Lake demands Richer's medical records, to determine how damaged he was by her.
