L.A. Confidential

When Los Angeles's Board of Police Commissioners proclaimed "a new era" in 1998, claiming to have implemented drastic reforms urged by the Christopher Commission in response to the Rodney King beating, many people had doubts. Now, with Los Angeles facing the Rampart scandal, the police commission is on the defensive. The Christopher Commission, which was headed by big-firm lawyers, had entrusted the Police Commission, led by big-firm lawyers, to carry through the reforms intended to prevent major scandals.

Standing Room Only

On Monday, the U.S. Supreme Court chambers will be packed for an extraordinary session on the constitutionality of the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2002.

At age 40, Paul Clement is one of the youngest solicitors general of the United States in history. As the Bush administration's top advocate at the Supreme Court, he manages much of the government's courtroom war on terror. His has been a stunningly quick rise -- and so far, unimpeded by the political grenades lobbed his way. At the end of Bush's term, Clement may be looking toward a career as a top tier member of the private Supreme Court bar, perhaps a judgeship, even a spot on the high court itself.
