Morning Docket: 09.10.25 - Above the Law
"* Judge blocks effort to fire Fed governor Lisa Cook, noting that pre-role misconduct - in this case, a mere accusation of pre-role misconduct to boot - doesn't meet the statutory definition of a "for cause" dismissal. [ Politico] * Federal judges are learning from each other's experiences. It's why Judge Sooknanan oversaw a grueling, round-the-clock oversight effort having watched the government exploit Judge Boasberg for treating them like good faith litigants. [ Lawfare]"
"* Banksy piece depicting a UK judge using a gave to brutally beat a protester will be removed. [ Legal Cheek] * Supreme Court to fast track appeal of Trump's tariffs case. Big test for a Court that already tried to twist itself in knots to build a conception of presidential power that's unlimited right up until it impacts their stock portfolios. [ CNBC] * Former Biglaw associate accused in DC occupation receives the latest no bill from a grand jury [ WUSA]"
A judge ruled that an accusation of pre-role misconduct does not satisfy the statutory "for cause" standard to remove Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook. Federal judges are intensifying peer learning and oversight, exemplified by Judge Sooknanan's around-the-clock supervision after observing litigation strategies involving Judge Boasberg. A Banksy work showing a UK judge beating a protester will be removed. The Supreme Court will fast-track an appeal of Trump's tariffs case, testing views on presidential power. A former Biglaw associate tied to the DC occupation was no-billed by a grand jury. The Second Circuit will hear suits alleging Tylenol causes autism, and an LGBTQ rights lawyer faces indictment for judge shopping.
