Will Majority Rule Prevail in Electing Corporate Boards?
Majority voting is the big issue of proxy season 2006, dividing businesses and their outside counsel as well. This year more than 140 businesses faced proposals from shareholder activists wanting to alter methods of electing board members.

Some people would call Cliff Nelson a union buster, but he thinks of himself as a gladiator -- and says he's part of a dying breed of lawyers who practice labor law.

In the guessing game over who might be the next Supreme Court nominee, one factor has been largely overlooked: geography. Whether a state can claim a justice is a matter not only of birthplace, but also of teaching posts, judicial appointments -- even summer homes. In the end, where a justice chooses to hail from may come down to politics. A key factor is whether a state has any senators from the majority party -- senators who can introduce and sponsor a nominee during the confirmation process.Trending Stories
