Odds and ends

• The “Indefensible” guy gets sued by an ex-prosecutor.  (See also news coverage.)
• SL&P shows how Posner doesn't know how to keycite.
• DoTD describes how the “This Third Circuit immigration appeal vacates yet another asylum denial at the hands of [removed] Immigration Judge Donald Ferlise.”
• Does it still count as a democracy, if the government can demand a change of a judge mid-trial ?  Shouldn’t they have to request a mis-trial, and move for a writ of mandamus?  Somehow the US government seems to always oppose this if a criminal defendant in the US wants this kind of relief.
• The Breyer Committee report on the Federal Courts’ handling of misconduct complaints is out.
• Interested in Nigerian 419 Scams?  There is now a book on them – and the people who “scam bait.”
• Oh, and the Thai Constitution, according to CNN, has been revoked by the military.
