Non-Sequiturs: 06.05.15
* Cue the Subway song: 130 Million. 130 Million Dollar. 130 Million Dollar Sandwich! [Law360]
* Lawyers who denigrate jury duty become inmates who denigrate jury duty. [Las Vegas Review-Journal]
* Vox gets into the business of opining on law school. It takes a decidedly more enlightened approach than Slate. [Vox]
* After arresting a guy for crack possession and figuring out it was really "cracker crumbs," the cops charged the guy with obstruction because admitting you're wrong is so passé. Thankfully the cooler heads of the judicial system prevailed and the guy is getting a $35,000 settlement for his troubles. Did he have Wheat Thins? Because I'm pretty sure those are crack. [NJ.com]
* Oil heir Al Hill III, whom we've previously described as, "by most accounts, the epitome of the spoiled rich kid you desperately want to punch," owes his lawyers some money. Like $40.9 million worth. [Texas Lawyer]
* Crowdsourcing: Is this racist? Personally, I think no if specifically intended as a parody, but we'll see. [What About Clients?]
* On Tuesday, June 23, David and Seventh Circuit Judge John Tinder will be discussing "Judging, Clerking, Ethics, and Ambition" in the context of Supreme Ambitions (affiliate link) at the Conrad Indianapolis at 50 West Washington. So, you know, swipe right if you're excited about seeing Judge Tinder. Full details at the link.
