Today I speak with Gabrielle Apollon and Pooja Bhatia about the histories behind the persecution of Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio, and beyond. Targeted as exemplary “bad people” by demagogue Donald Trump, the stories of both the town and the people of Springfield are brought forward by Pooja Bhatia, who lived both in Haiti and as a journalist lived with the people in Springfield.  Complementing Bhatia's local stories of migrants, we have Gabrielle Apollon of the Global Justice Clinic, who tells of the complex “push” factors that drive Haitians from their homeland. We end on a hopeful note—showing how instances of transnational solidarity have succeeded where governments and international governmental bodies have failed.For more information on this topic, please check out our blog.Gabrielle Apollon is the Director of the Haitian Immigrant Rights project at NYU Law's Global Justice Clinic. She also coordinates the Hemispheric Network for Haitian Migrants' Rights, a coalition of Haitian activists, lawyers, and leaders, collaborating to combat the anti-Black racism, exclusion and cyclical displacement Haitians have faced as they've migrated throughout the Western Hemisphere. Gabrielle previously served as Managing Attorney at The Door: A Center for Alternatives, where she represented young people in immigration and family law matters. She holds a Bachelor of Arts and a Master of International Affairs from Columbia University, as well as a law degree from NYU School of Law.Pooja Bhatia is an U.S. writer, editor and teacher who has reported on Haiti and Haitian immigrants for more than 15 years. She lived in Haiti from 2007 to 2011 and speaks Kreyòl.

People who go to law school are some of the most driven, hard working people, but often end up struggling the most financially. Attorneys go through a crazy journey—years of intense study, grueling exams, and relentless hours—only to enter a field where financial stability isn't always guaranteed.

Creating legitimate points of access to justice is a cornerstone of our legal system.But when it comes to modern forms of abuse such as digital bullying or image-based sexual abuse, or even with children in the foster-care system, the path to justice is often retraumatizing, ill-equiped, or simply non-existent. My guest today is Allison Mahoney, the Founder and Managing Attorney of ALM Law, where she specializes in trauma-informed legal representation for survivors of abuse and children harmed in child welfare systems. With more than a decade of experience, Allison has built a distinguished career advocating for vulnerable children in foster care and those impacted by sexual abuse and domestic violence. Her work is defined by her deep commitment to securing justice for survivors.We discuss her early career and what drove her to pursue a line of work many of us would like to forget, why victim-blaming is so ingrained - even on a linguistic level, and what steps need to be taken to reform the system to serve the people who need it most. Enjoy the show. 

What are public utility commissions (PUCs)? In the transition to clean energy, state public utility commissions (PUCs), which regulate electric, gas, telecommunications, water and wastewater utilities, play an increasingly important role in achieving energy efficiency, enabling renewable energy, and implementing policies for greenhouse gas emissions reduction. PUCs  play a pivotal role in determining the energy mix, setting rates, and deciding on investments in infrastructure, such as electric vehicle (EV) charging stations. The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), for example, has to balance  safety, reliable utility service, and reasonable rates through the regulation of various large investor-owned electric, natural gas, and water utilities. Utility commissions like CPUC are given a statutory mandate to ensure reasonable, adequate and efficient service to customers at just and reasonable prices. PUCs can issue regulations that impact electricity generation, the adoption of clean energy, and related emissions of pollutants and GHGs. PUCs can play an important role in shaping energy infrastructure, policy, and clean energy development.The Role PUCs play in shaping energy infrastructurePUCs were first created in the early 20th century to focus on overseeing operations and the utility investment in service while ensuring affordable rates. That role has evolved, and now PUCs often play a transformative role in transitioning towards a greener economy. PUCs have the ability to consider the impacts of GHG emissions, equity, grid reliability, distributed energy resources, and increased consumer choices in their policy decisions. PUCs oversee planning processes that affect a utility's resource portfolio and therefore its environmental profile. A new method of planning amongst PUCs has emerged known as Integrated Resource Planning (IRP), which compares the life cycle costs of different resource choices that factor energy efficiency into their analysis. Portfolio standards have also been added to IRP, which requires certain types of resources to be included in the utilities' mix of power procured, including renewable energy and energy efficiency. PUCs can also incorporate environmental considerations by increasing oversight of utility planning processes, setting prices, determining clean energy targets, and addressing utility incentives related to energy efficiency and distribution. PUCs thus have the ability to promote and shape clean energy adoption and development through their regulatory oversight. The Case for PUCsState PUCs have significant authority, often includingI the ability to accelerate decarbonization of the energy sector, mitigate the impacts of climate change, improve public health, and assist in reaching state energy goals. Updated PUC statutory mandates that reflect state energy priorities can contribute to their success in transforming the energy grid to become more energy efficient. Energy efficiency is a cost-effective mechanism to meet future demand for electricity. Energy efficiency reduces the amount of electricity needed to meet demand thereby benefiting the overall reliability of the electric grid. With more efficient systems, utilities and states will not need to build as much new transmission and generation, which can save money and improve environmental quality. Further, modern regulations to achieve such priorities and framing for the public interest can incorporate climate and environmental justice concerns. The Case Against PUCsOrganizational challenges such as outdated mandates, staff constraints, gaps in technical knowledge, misinformation, and quasi-judicial processes have created barriers to innovation amongst PUCs. Some PUCs still continue to view themselves as purely economic regulators, which does not accurately reflect the current decisions they are being asked to make. Additionally, the authority of PUCs varies widely from state to state. PUCs authority is established by state legislatures, thus their power only extends as far as their statutory authorization. The level of statutory authority delegated to PUCs by legislatures also varies widely. Barriers such as these have made it difficult for some  PUCs to develop more innovative mechanisms consistent with new environmental targets and the effort to achieve a zero-carbon US grid.While transitioning to clean energy promises long-term savings and environmental benefits, the short-term costs can be significant and potentially burdensome for consumers and businesses, posing political and fiscal challenges for PUCs. Stakeholder engagement in this transition will be vital. Labor issues also pose challenges as states transition away from  fossil fuels. In addition, challenges exist around regulatory complexities and the evolving federal and state policies. About Our GuestJill Tauber is the Vice President of Litigation for Climate and Energy at EarthJustice.

When it comes to patent eligibility and statutory construction, does “any” really mean “any?” In the courts, is it permissible to limit statutorily-authorized patent term adjustment based on a doctrine that has no basis in statute?

Brittany is a Thomas Jefferson School of Law Graduate and currently works as the Chief Product Officer at Tempello and as a Managing Attorney at Dracup and Patterson. In this episode, I sit down with Brittany, whose career has taken her from the law officer to the cutting edge of legal technology. Brittany started her legal journey in family law, with a passion for helping others, volunteering extensively, and contributing over 100 hours to Legal Aid Societies. But today, her path is shifting in a way she never anticipated.We go back to her early days when Brittany's legal aspirations took root. After earning her undergraduate degree, she spent two years exploring a wide range of legal internships and jobs. Despite gaining valuable experience, Brittany admits these roles couldn't fully prepare her for the real challenges of law school or the practice of law itself—something that resonates with many in the profession.At Thomas Jefferson School of Law, Brittany faced the academic grind head-on, describing it as “getting the kitchen sink thrown at you,” but with a twist—she didn't allow the pressure to define her. Instead, her balanced approach helped her thrive, not only in her studies but also in her commitment to community service.As she transitioned into the legal workforce, Brittany landed her first role as an associate attorney, diving deep into family law. But she quickly learned just how steep the learning curve can be. That experience eventually led her to join forces with her father's firm, Dracup & Patterson, where she had the freedom to choose her cases and carve out her own space in the legal world.But here's where the story gets really interesting—Brittany's legal career might be coming to a close as she embarks on a new entrepreneurial venture. Alongside her father and brother, Brittany is now the Chief Product Officer of Tempello, a groundbreaking legal tech startup. We dive into her transition from law to tech, what it's like leading a family business, and how her knack for master organization has carried her from courtroom success to startup leadership.Brittany's story is a powerful reminder that you can always shift gears, no matter where you are in life. Whether you're in the thick of law school or a seasoned attorney, this episode is packed with insights on navigating career transitions, building resilience, and finding success on your terms.Brittany's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brittanydracupesqTempello AI: https://tempello.aiBe sure to check out the Official Sponsors for the Lawyers in the Making Podcast:Rhetoric - takes user briefs and motions and compares them against the text of opinions written by judges to identify ways to tailor their arguments to better persuade the judges handling their cases.

A July ruling in New York marked a victory for the public and transparency. Federal judge Victor Marrero held that the public has a First Amendment right to know what authorities have done with allegations of prosecutorial misconduct. The court issued its July 22 decision in the case CRC v. Cushman, finding that the Second Department and Grievance Committees can no longer conceal from public view the decisions they have made, or will make, regarding 21 ethics complaints filed against current and former Queens prosecutors. In total, from 2021 to 2023, law professors and attorneys filed 50 ethics complaints alleging prosecutorial misconduct by New York prosecutors and published them online at AccountabilityNY.org. The ethics complaints include very serious misconduct allegations, such as providing secret benefits to a witness, allowing a witness to lie to the jury, concealing evidence of innocence, unlawfully discriminating against Black jurors, and misleading the jury about the evidence in the case. Everyday Injustice spoke with Peter Santina, the Managing Attorney of the Prosecutorial Accountability Project at Civil Rights Corps who talked about the problem of prosecutorial misconduct and the difficulty of exposing it to the public.

Send us a Text Message.When an order of protection threatened to keep a parent from seeing his children for two years, how did his attorney resolve the situation?In this episode of the Modern Arizona Podcast, host and family law attorney Billie Tarascio is joined by Kylie Bigelow, Managing Attorney at Modern Law, to discuss a highly controversial case that garnered significant online attention involving a custody situation and the order of protection that had been put in place by the mother. Kylie shares her experience navigating this challenging case where her client, the father, faced the prospect of not seeing his children for two years due to an order of protection upheld by a city court.The podcast provides an in-depth look into the legal intricacies involved in transferring the case to Superior Court, allowing for a more nuanced consideration of custody and visitation rights. Kylie explains how they filed for temporary orders, which enabled the Superior Court judge to address the overlapping issues of the protection order and the father's right to see his children. This strategic move highlighted the importance of understanding jurisdictional authority in family law cases and leveraging it effectively to protect clients' rights.The discussion also touches on the broader implications of such legal battles, particularly the polarized views surrounding domestic violence allegations and parental rights. Billie and Kylie explore the delicate balance courts must maintain between protecting abuse victims and ensuring that children maintain healthy relationships with both parents. Kylie emphasizes that judges are equipped to make these complex decisions, often recognizing that someone can be a flawed spouse yet still a good parent.
