Act I: Shook, Hardy, and Bacon attorney Paul Reid (who I don't know and have no prior connection with) represents a severely injured plaintiff seeking compensation for his injury. As tends to happen in civil litigation, the case drags on. Act II: Opposing law firm asks for a continuance, which would further delay trial, in part based on the lead defense attorney's pregnancy and subsequent maternity leave plans. Act III: Reid files a rather mundane motion opposing the continuance, stressing… [read post]

Carlson sent a letter to Senators Grassley and Feinstein on behalf of the ABA. The letter urged that senators delay a vote on Judge Kavanaugh's nomination until "an appropriate background check into the allegations made by Professor Blasey and others is completed by the Federal Bureau of Investigation."

Ford acknowledges she didn't tell anyone in any detail about Kavanaugh's alleged sexual assault and attempted rape until thirty-two years after the incident. Under the best of circumstances, a thirty-two year time gap before an allegation surfaces would raise questions about the accuracy and completeness of complainant's memory. But this isn't the best of of circumstances. For one thing, everyone else who Ford claims was at the relevant party, including a lifelong friend of hers,… [read post]

As readers may recall, Democracy in Chains by Duke History Professor Nancy MacLean is a very badly-flawed account of the life, career, and influence of the late Nobel Prize winning economist, James Buchanan. Despite the fact that the book has been shown to be replete with errors, exaggerations, and misinterpretations, it was a finalist for a National Book Award and more recently received honors from the Los Angeles Times. Most disturbingly, despite serious allegations of academic malfeaseance,… [read post]

In Short, Probably NotIn the aftermath of the horrific murders at a synagogue in Pittsburgh on Saturday, a good part of the media, social and otherwise, wishes to blame Donald Trump. Surely, Trump's inflammatory rhetoric doesn't exactly calm societal waters, and his remarks on Charlottesville, though often exaggerated by hostile sources, did not exactly come across as a rousing denunciation of white supremacay. Nevertheless, there are some barriers to blaming Trump for anti-Semitic acts… [read post]

The percentage of Americans with anti-Semitic attitudes has been stable, but anti-Semites are more active, more visible, and more willing to express their views than in the past.I've been hearing from Jewish friends I respect, even before the Pittsburgh shooting, that they perceive that anti-Semitism is on the rise in the U.S. These friends have disparate ideological views; some are on the left, some on the right politically. As I've noted before, the data don't (yet?) support a… [read post]

Academic discourse is increasingly under threat from activist professors.According to Professor Ted Hill, Amie Wilkinson, a senior professor of mathematics at the University of Chicago, launched a successful campaign to get one mathematics journal that had accepted his paper withdraw its acceptance, and a second journal to "unpublish" the paper after publishing it online, apparently because discussing even mathematical models of hypothetical sex differences is forbidden if someone might… [read post]
