Cicumcision litigation snips away at reasonAdam Glazer
The article discusses a legal dispute between unmarried parents Dennis Nebus and Heather Hironimus over whether to circumcise their 3.5-year-old son Chase. Originally both parents agreed to the circumcision but Hironimus later changed her mind. The trial judge ruled that the original parenting agreement requiring circumcision was binding. However, Hironimus has appealed, arguing that the child's best interests should take precedence over the contract. The judge also issued a gag order barring Hironimus from telling Chase that she did not want him to undergo the procedure.

ppellate court on thorny procedural or technical questions. And then there’s Marshel Copple,
whose peculiar case helps explain why appellate courts often issue unpublished decisions.
When he applied as a correctional officer with the California Department of Corrections,
Copple knew the CDOC expected a “willingness to work day, evening or night shifts, weekends
and holidays.” Before starting work, Copple executed a CDOC document that stated working
overtime was essential.
Once hired, Copple began a 12month
probation and was assigned to Ironwood State Prison,
which required overtime. Copple quickly concluded he could not follow his “Sun Worshipping
Atheism” beliefs while at Ironwood. So two months later, still on probation, he posted the tenets
of Sun Worshipping Atheism on a website and Facebook to facilitate their presentation to CDOC.
And hallelujah for those tenets.
Baseball owners still 'reserving' right to underpay minor leaguersAdam Glazer
During spring training last year, this column detailed a class-action suit filed by three ex-minor leaguers alleging Major League Baseball paid them less than fast-food workers.
Unrepresented by a labor union, minor leaguers toil 50 to 70 hours per week through a five-month season for subminimum wage with no overtime and no compensation during spring training, instructional leagues or winter leagues.
Minor leaguers must serve a minimum of seven seasons to gain eligibility for free agency. And the few ballplayers who hang around long enough to meet this criterion are unlikely to have a major league future, inherently reducing their value.
A rep's telltale sign of looming termination what can be doneAdam Glazer

Form objections to deposition questions are dated and boilerplateAdam Glazer
Object to the form of the question. While it’s a technically permissible and proper deposition objection, it generally proves of limited utility beyond venting.
Most litigators have, however, encountered at least one opponent who believes in repeating this line after virtually every worthwhile deposition question.
Whether that opponent rigidly interprets Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 32(d)(3)’s waiver rule on depositions or simply desires to disrupt the examination’s flow, many flawless inquiries face baseless form objections.

This fall, Kate Walsh, formerly of “Grey’s Anatomy” and “Private Practice,” premieres as the Honorable Rebecca Wright in the NBC sitcom, “Bad Judge.”
Like Walsh’s previous characters, Judge Wright looks to be a somewhat salacious and bawdy professional, this time dispensing criminal justice rather than medical care.
The show’s promotional clips feature a prosecutor summoned to the bench who defends his questioning as “protocol.” An ill‐tempered and hung‐over Wright responds, “Yeah? Are tight pants part of your protocol, too?”

Counsel vouches for client with personal story, throws away a winAdam Glazer
The document discusses a case where an attorney improperly vouched for her client during closing arguments. The attorney recounted her own experience with sexual harassment, referred to other clients' experiences, and made emotionally charged comments aimed at enhancing the damages award. While vouching is generally deemed harmless error, the 8th Circuit reversed due to the egregious nature of the attorney's vouching and appeals to sympathy. The decision suggests only similarly improper conduct will lead courts to take vouching violations more seriously.
Lessons learned from friendly house sale and planning for trialAdam Glazer
The plaintiffs Brian and Nicole Kelly, who were friends with the defendants Larry Orrico and Renae Yockey, signed a purchase contract to sell their home to the defendants for $1.2 million in July 2007. In May 2008, the defendants said they could not proceed with the purchase. The plaintiffs then found another buyer for the same price but the defendants refused to pay the $30,000 realtor commission. The plaintiffs sued the defendants for breaching the purchase contract and being awarded $150,000. However, an appellate court overturned this ruling as the plaintiffs did not allege anticipatory repudiation in their complaint and the evidence showed the defendants' actions did not clearly manifest an intent not to perform under the contract
Ny pol can't take assembley down with himAdam Glazer
Vito Lopez was a powerful New York politician who resigned from the state assembly in disgrace after sexual harassment allegations from former staffers. Two staffers then filed a lawsuit against the New York State Assembly, arguing it was responsible as their employer and had enabled Lopez's harassment. However, a Manhattan judge dismissed the lawsuit, finding that the assembly was not the staffers' employer and there was no evidence that other assembly members had participated in or enabled the harassment. While the dismissal was without prejudice, it appears the proper parties for a lawsuit would be the state of New York and Lopez as an individual, not the entire assembly.
Minor leaguers’ salary lawsuit poses major problems for baseballAdam Glazer
Three former minor league baseball players have filed a class action lawsuit against Major League Baseball, three MLB teams, and the MLB commissioner alleging that MLB violates federal and state minimum wage laws by paying minor leaguers less than minimum wage. The suit claims that while MLB revenue has grown significantly, minor league salaries have increased by only about 75% despite a 400% rise in inflation. It seeks unpaid minimum wages and damages for MLB's alleged unlawful employment practices. If successful, the suit could force an overhaul of the minor league system.
The document summarizes a court case in Kansas where a same-sex couple used a known sperm donor to have a child but without going through a licensed physician as required by the state's antiquated parentage act. When the couple applied for public assistance, the state asserted the sperm donor was the legal father and pursued him for child support. The court ruled it had no choice but to enforce the outdated law from 1973 that required physician involvement in artificial insemination to relieve donors of parental responsibilities. The case highlights how outdated laws can produce unfair results and fail to keep pace with modern families. Illinois law contains a similar requirement that could produce the same problems.
Minimalist Court Ruling Lets Class-Action Counsel Seek Members on Social MediaAdam Glazer
The court ruled that an attorney representing plaintiffs in a class action lawsuit could use social media like Facebook and Twitter to solicit additional plaintiffs. While the defendant argued the social media posts were misleading, the court said it was not its role to micromanage attorneys' communications with potential class members. This case supports the growing acceptance of using social media to notify individuals about potential class actions. However, the rules governing class actions have not been updated for the digital age, so there is little legal guidance on using social media in this context.
Practical e discovery approach prevailsAdam Glazer
Judge John F. Grady of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois issued an opinion in FDIC v. Giannoulias providing guidance on common e-discovery issues. The case involved a lawsuit by the FDIC against former executives of Broadway Bank to recover $114 million in losses from commercial real estate loans. The court ordered the FDIC to use additional search terms but not overly broad terms. Neither party wanted to review documents for responsiveness so the court ruled the FDIC did not need to do so. The court also found the FDIC's method of electronically producing emails satisfied Rule 34 requirements.
Federal court saves 'ridiculous' argumentAdam Glazer
The 6th Circuit Court of Appeals criticized State Farm for dismissing the plaintiff's argument as "ridiculous" in a case regarding insurance coverage. The plaintiff, who was struck by an insured's vehicle and thrown onto the hood, claimed she was an "occupant" entitled to coverage under the policy language. While State Farm rejected her claim, the court noted there are good reasons not to disparage opponents' arguments, and found that based on the policy's definition of "occupying," the plaintiff was indeed an occupant covered by the insurance. The court ruled the plaintiff's argument was correct, not ridiculous, and State Farm should have relied on its own policy language rather than a common sense view of occupancy.
The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that The Tennis Channel (TTC) was not entitled to placement on Comcast's basic cable service and could remain on its more expensive sports tier. The court found that Comcast provided sufficient evidence for additional costs of distributing TTC more broadly, while TTC failed to show benefits to Comcast. In response, the CEO of TTC sent an angry email criticizing the "unholy decision" and likening the court to a "Mad Hatter," but later regretted his "excessively colorful and inappropriate words."
When compensating for pain and suffering, it's a small world after allAdam Glazer
The document discusses several recent court cases involving awards for pain and suffering. It describes cases such as a $1 million award to the estate of a man who died after being detained by police, a $280,000 award including $50,000 for pain and suffering to a woman bitten by her brother's dog, and an $8 million award to a man for pain and suffering related to a defective artificial hip. It also describes a notable $8,000 award including $4,000 for pain and suffering to a paraplegic man who was trapped on the "It's a Small World" ride at Disneyland for 30 minutes while the song played on a loop.
Discovery of posts on social media remains governed by traditional rulesAdam Glazer
A class action lawsuit was filed by over 1,700 current and former employees of Aaron's Inc. claiming they were not allowed lunch breaks in violation of labor laws. During discovery, Aaron's found social media posts by the lead plaintiff indicating he took lunch breaks. Aaron's then requested social media posts from 87 randomly selected plaintiffs to see if others also took breaks. The plaintiffs argued this was overly burdensome. The court reviewed Facebook's features and ruled the posts were discoverable, as they contain timestamps. However, the court also ruled Aaron's did not demonstrate the relevance of obtaining all plaintiffs' posts, and that the burden was too great. Courts require discovery requests show information is reasonably calculated to lead to admissible evidence, rather
NBA point guard's father wishes his home for suit was in chicagoAdam Glazer
The document discusses a recent court case in Illinois that makes it more difficult for employers to enforce non-compete agreements against former employees. Specifically, the court ruled that for a non-compete agreement to be enforced, the employee must have worked for the employer for at least two years. This is relevant to a lawsuit filed in Florida accusing Ronnie Chalmers, father of NBA player Mario Chalmers, of violating a non-compete agreement after leaving a sports agency job after only four months. The article suggests Chalmers may wish the suit was filed in Chicago instead of Florida given the more employer-friendly ruling in Illinois.
Limits on access to social media communications are inconsistentAdam Glazer
The document discusses recent court rulings on the discoverability of social media content in litigation. Several cases have produced inconsistent standards, but generally courts will grant access to social media accounts if their content could potentially contradict claims made in a case. While broad fishing expeditions are not allowed, demonstrated relevance of specific content to disputed issues makes that content discoverable despite privacy expectations. The analysis remains case-specific without strict rules.
Will Subway Use the 'Puffery Defense' in Suits Over Foot-Longs?Adam Glazer
Subway is facing lawsuits in the US from customers who claim the sandwiches labeled as "foot-longs" are sometimes shorter than 12 inches. The article discusses how one disappointed customer in Australia first posted about measuring a short sandwich on Facebook, sparking similar measurements and lawsuits from customers in the US. It notes Subway may invoke the "puffery defense" used in advertising to argue terms like "foot-long" are merely descriptive and not intended as precise measurements.
Shoe store worker blows whistle on employer after terminationAdam Glazer
Mary Stapleton was an assistant manager at a DSW store in Cherry Hill, N.J., this past March when a woman and her mischievous 22-month-old daughter came to try on some shoes. A sales associate soon informed Stapleton that the toddler was busy painting the store's shelves with DSW nail polish.
When Stapleton approached the child to retrieve the nail polish, she found her mother was ignoring her. And from the strong foul odor she detected, it appeared she had been ignored for some time.
