- Hart v Comcast of Alamenda P2P Settlement Website – Class members get about $16 (and added to a list of suspected software pirates, we’d expect). Class counsel get $3 million.
- Law.com – Judge Rejects Paul Weiss Partner’s Bid to Revisit His Divorce Pact After Madoff Loss – We wrote about Simkin back in February when we identified a few other Paul Weiss lawyers who lost money with Madoff.

- lawjobs.com Career Center – The Future of Summer Associate Recruiting – Considering the abject ineptitude and complete lack of authority of NALP, we can’t wait to see what pointless mess they come up with.
- Legal Profession Blog: Remand In Litigation over Fees – Former Sonnenschein partner wins some, loses some, in suit about fees from suing Lybia over bombing of Pan Am 103.
- Law.com – Federal Circuit Affirms $290 Million Judgment Against Microsoft – OK, so it’s not just the M&A lawyers keeping the bankruptcy lawyers company at Weil Gotshal.
