Suffolk Law School Gets Serious About Technology
Suffolk University Law School's new Institute of Law Practice Technology and Innovation will host lectures, develop courses and conduct research into how technology is changing the practice of law and how to better prepare students to enter the industry. One of its projects is participation in the Google Glass trial -- an early test drive of futuristic specs.Romeo v. Seton Hall University
The exemption in the LAD for educational facilities operated or maintained by a bona fide religious institution may not be waived; even if it could, Seton Hall's antidiscrimination policy is inadequate to constitute a waiver; the Woolley standard is inapplicable to the university-student relationship, and defendant's refusal to recognize plaintiff's gay and lesbian group was made in compliance with its antidiscrimination policy; his LAD and breach-of-contract claims cannot stand as a matter of law.In hot tenants' market, will firms stay or go

What's in a Name? A Lot if You're an Angel
When owner Arte Moreno renamed the 2002 World Series champions the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, the city slapped the team with a lawsuit, claiming tens of millions in lost publicity. The suit claims the team violated a 1996 contract that required "Anaheim" be featured prominently in all team-related merchandise and advertisements. Many fans say the war of words obscures what the debate is really about: A general failure to recognize that Orange County has its own identity that doesn't need LA's cachet.Heller Shareholders Lay Out Bankruptcy Theories
A group of about 90 former Heller Ehrman partners has logged a defense against creditors' claims that the firm was insolvent in 2007, a key point the creditors need to prove to build a fraudulent transfer suit. The brief -- which is the first peep from any former Heller partners in the 10-month-old bankruptcy -- blames the recession for the firm's demise and asserts that creditors cannot possibly prove that Heller was undercapitalized by the end of 2007, or that funds were fraudulently transferred thereafter.Orrick Overpaid by Nevada Politician It Backed
Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe profited -- and was overpaid by nearly $96,000 -- from improperly handled state funds, according to a bipartisan Nevada legislative audit. The payer, the Nevada College Savings Program, had been managed by then-state treasurer and current Republican Lt. Gov. Brian Krolicki, a recipient of $29,000 in campaign donations from Orrick and its lawyers. Although the audit found no wrongdoing on Orrick's part, it criticized how work was given to the firm.Pa. Justices Let Stand Record-Setting $65 Million Verdicts
The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has refused to review the two largest verdicts -- worth more than $65 million -- ever handed up by Luzerne County juries. The high court's ruling upholds a decision that rejected the appeals of a sprinkler system manufacturer that was held partially liable for a warehouse fire that destroyed millions of stored documents. The Superior Court rejected the argument that the sprinkler system was not a "product" because it was not completely installed at the time of the fire.Trending Stories
