Day 88 of visiting 100 blogs in 100 days...



Day 88 of visiting 100 blogs in 100 days...

With all the hoopla about the Samuel Alito and the Enron trial, I thought that today's blog of the day should focus on law (or at least the interpretation and business of law). The Wall Street Journal - WSJ.com's law blog focuses on law and business, and the business of law, plus coverage of litigation that you may have missed while asleep. I get exactly what I wanted and more via this blog !

Not everything is dry and serious - for example one post reads:

Harvard art history professor and Yale Law School grad Robin Kelsey lightheartedly debunks myths about lawyers on the WSJ.com Law Page. Among them: Most national leaders went to law school, so if you go to law school, you will probably become a national leader. Also: Being a lawyer brings with it vast wealth.

and...

The Los Angeles school board [who] unanimously decided to rename its Mt. Vernon Middle School after Johnnie Cochran, the famed defense lawyer who died last year.

and one more...

Amid the BlackBerry controversy, The Wall Street Journal's Anne Marie Squeo takes us to the frontlines of patent battles, where litigants try to invalidate patents by finding evidence that the idea behind a given patent isn't actually new. IP cognoscenti call such evidence "prior art;" according to Squeo, when it's used successfully to ward off a patent claim it's referred to as "killer art."
