The Supreme Court's latest term was one of its most significant for administrative law. The Court ended Chevron deference, declared a right to a jury trial in securities fraud adjudications at the Securities and Exchange Commission, and expanded the statute of limitations to challenge agency decisions. Other leading cases included a challenge to a major Trump-era rulemaking on guns and a challenge to a significant federal environmental implementation plan. The Court's opinions have raised important questions about the separation of powers, the role of Congress, and the future of regulatory governance in America. Now that the Court has issued its rulings, the panel considers: What comes next for the regulated public, Congress, executive branch agencies, and the States?FeaturingHon. Paul D.

This Day in Legal History: SCOTUS Ends Bus SegregationOn November 13, 1956, the U.S. Supreme Court took a pivotal stand against racial segregation by refusing to hear the appeal in Browder v. Gayle, a landmark case challenging bus segregation laws in Alabama. This action upheld a ruling from the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Alabama, which had declared state and local bus segregation laws unconstitutional. This legal victory effectively ended the Montgomery Bus Boycott, a 381-day protest sparked by Rosa Parks' arrest for refusing to give up her bus seat to a white passenger in Montgomery, Alabama.The boycott, organized by the Montgomery Improvement Association under the leadership of a young Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., had drawn national attention and served as a major catalyst for the Civil Rights Movement. By ruling against bus segregation, the Supreme Court struck down a long-standing component of Jim Crow laws in the South, emphasizing that enforced racial segregation violated the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment. This decision marked a significant legal and moral victory, highlighting the role of the federal judiciary in upholding civil rights in the face of local and state resistance.The end of bus segregation had immediate impacts, enabling Black citizens to ride buses alongside white passengers without enforced separation. More broadly, it emboldened the Civil Rights Movement, inspiring additional challenges to racial discrimination and unequal treatment across the United States.Donald Trump's push for a loyal attorney general highlights his intention to reshape the Justice Department to align closely with his agenda, a move seen as a bid to consolidate power and settle scores. Trump's past frustration with Jeff Sessions and Bill Barr, who he viewed as disloyal for permitting investigations against him, underscores his desire for an attorney general who will prioritize his directives, even if it undermines traditional Justice Department norms. Trump's team, led by conservative lawyer Mark Paoletta, is signaling that department employees must either support Trump's agenda or risk losing their positions, signaling a deep commitment to loyalty over impartiality.Trump has promised to prioritize mass deportations, pardon January 6 rioters, and aggressively pursue individuals and officials he believes have wronged him, including political figures like Joe Biden, prosecutors like Alvin Bragg, and past critics like Liz Cheney. Legal experts warn that this approach could undermine prosecutorial independence, a principle established after the Watergate scandal. Trump's transition team suggests a shift in priorities for the Justice Department, where cases involving immigration and religious freedom would take precedence over issues like police accountability and diversity programs.With the Supreme Court's recent ruling granting broad presidential immunity for official acts, Trump's power to leverage the Justice Department is greatly expanded. Critics, including attorney Bradley Moss, believe Trump is prepared to exploit these legal boundaries to fulfill his promises of “retribution.” The list of potential attorney general candidates includes loyalists like Andrew Bailey, Mike Lee, and Matthew Whitaker, hinting at Trump's intent to install officials willing to carry out his vision without hesitation.Trump seeks loyal attorney general | ReutersThe U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments from Nvidia, which seeks to dismiss a securities fraud lawsuit accusing it of misleading investors about the extent of its revenue dependence on cryptocurrency-related sales. The case, led by Swedish investment firm E. Ohman J:or Fonder AB, claims Nvidia and CEO Jensen Huang made false statements in 2017-2018 that downplayed how much of the company's revenue growth stemmed from volatile crypto markets. When cryptocurrency profitability declined in 2018, Nvidia's revenue fell short of projections, leading to a stock price drop that hurt investors.The lawsuit initially dismissed by a federal judge was later revived by the 9th Circuit Court, which found the plaintiffs had sufficiently alleged that Nvidia's leadership knowingly or recklessly made misleading statements. Nvidia contends the plaintiffs have not met the high bar required under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which aims to limit frivolous securities lawsuits by requiring clear evidence of intentional misrepresentation.The Biden administration has sided with shareholders in this case, while Nvidia argues the lawsuit should be dismissed for lack of sufficient evidence. This case, along with a similar one involving Meta, could shape the legal threshold for private securities fraud cases, potentially making it harder for investors to sue companies for alleged misleading statements. Rulings on both cases are expected by the end of June.US Supreme Court to hear Nvidia bid to avoid securities fraud suit | ReutersThe U.S. Supreme Court is debating how broadly to interpret what constitutes a "crime of violence" in a case involving mobster Salvatore Delligatti, who was convicted of attempted murder-for-hire. The legal question revolves around whether a crime can qualify as violent under federal law even when no physical force is directly used. Delligatti's case challenges a firearms statute that imposes a minimum five-year sentence for crimes involving “the use, attempted use, or threatened use of physical force.”The justices grappled with “absurd” hypotheticals to explore if a crime can be violent in nature without actual force, as the statute requires. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson highlighted a hypothetical involving a lifeguard refusing to save someone, pointing out that under the court's “categorical approach,” even passive omissions could be considered violent. Justice Elena Kagan noted the oddity of this approach since failing to act doesn't fit typical violent behavior but could theoretically fulfill the statute's requirement, even for murder.Delligatti's defense argues that attempted murder isn't always inherently violent, as some cases might involve indirect actions or omissions. Justice Neil Gorsuch suggested the court could separate violent acts from omissions to avoid “absurdity.” Yet, the debate underscores the challenge: whether the law's strict categorization aligns with common-sense definitions of violent crimes, especially in cases involving complex, indirect criminal conduct like murder-for-hire.Mafia Case Tests Supreme Court on Crime of Violence Limits (1)Wealth managers are increasingly turning to strategies like the “tax-aware long-short” to help high-net-worth clients avoid taxes. This tax-loss harvesting approach involves holding one stock expected to appreciate long-term and another stock likely to decline in value short-term. When the anticipated loss occurs, the losing asset is sold to offset gains from the appreciating one, reducing taxable income and the overall tax bill. At the macro level, this strategy effectively shifts the tax burden from wealthy investors to average taxpayers and ultimately reduces public funds for essential services.The preferential treatment of long-term capital gains—taxed at up to 20%, compared to a 37% maximum for ordinary income—already favors investment income over wages. While this policy was intended to promote investment, its default high cost to public funds and the extensive tax planning that can be used to exploit it reveal systemic failures in the tax code. When tax professionals and investors go to such lengths to sidestep taxes, this reflects inefficiencies and inequities in tax policy.Addressing this issue requires substantial policy reforms. One solution would be to tax capital gains at the same rate as wages, removing the impetus to shift income into capital gains and thus increasing tax equity between ordinary income and investment income. While this might simplify the tax code and raise substantial revenue, it could discourage investment and lead to market volatility as investors bear more risk without tax-offset options.Another option is to tax unrealized gains, similar to property taxes which tax value without the need for realization, where gains are taxed at regular intervals even if the asset isn't sold. Under this approach, unrealized capital losses could offset unrealized gains during these set intervals, reducing opportunities for manipulative tax timing. This method would diminish the appeal of strategies like the long-short by minimizing the benefits of timing short-term losses against long-term gains. In sum, the effect of timing-based tax loss planning strategies would largely be blunted. On the polar opposite policy spectrum, lowering capital gains rates would reduce the financial incentive to hire advisors for complex tax avoidance strategies. Lowering rates might make it more cost effective for investors to pay taxes directly rather than invest in costly avoidance techniques.Ultimately, tax reform should prioritize policies that effectively generate revenue while minimizing the need for complex, resource-intensive planning.We Need a Better Way to Reduce Tax Avoidance and Enhance Equity This is a public episode.

This Day in Legal History: Alabama Ten Commandments MonumentOn August 28, 2003, the Supreme Court of Alabama took down a monument of the Ten Commandments from its courthouse rotunda, marking the culmination of a high-profile legal battle. The monument had been installed by Chief Justice Roy Moore in 2001, who argued that it reflected the moral foundation of U.S. law. However, this act sparked a federal lawsuit, Glassroth v. Moore, in which three Alabama attorneys claimed the monument violated the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment, which prohibits government endorsement of religion.The federal District Court for the Middle District of Alabama agreed with the plaintiffs, ordering Moore to remove the monument. Moore refused, maintaining that he had a duty to acknowledge God in his official capacity. The case was subsequently appealed to the Eleventh Circuit, which upheld the lower court's ruling. When Moore continued to defy the court orders, the Supreme Court of Alabama intervened, removing him from his position as Chief Justice. This case became a significant moment in the ongoing debate over the separation of church and state in the United States.It is worth noting that Roy Moore, the then-Chief Justice of the Alabama Supreme Court who so vociferously argued for the inclusion of the Ten Commandment monument is the selfsame Roy Moore that, during his 2017 U.S. Senate campaign, saw nine women accuse him of inappropriate conduct. Three of the women claimed they were assaulted by Moore when they were aged 14, 16, and 28. The other six women described Moore pursuing relationships with them when they were as young as 16. Independent witnesses corroborated that Moore had a reputation for approaching teenage girls at a local mall. Moore's responses to the allegations were inconsistent, initially recognizing some accusers but later denying knowledge of any of them. Thomas V. Girardi, a prominent figure in toxic tort litigation, was convicted on four counts of wire fraud in Los Angeles federal court. Once renowned for his work on the Erin Brockovich case and his appearances on "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," the disbarred attorney faced accusations of defrauding vulnerable clients. The jury reached a unanimous verdict after just four hours of deliberation, rejecting Girardi's defense that his cognitive decline prevented him from forming intent to commit fraud.Prosecutors argued that Girardi knowingly deceived clients, fabricating excuses to explain the missing funds, which he had already spent. The trial centered on the suffering of clients who were betrayed by Girardi in their darkest moments, leading to their financial and emotional devastation. Girardi could face up to 80 years in prison at his sentencing in December. His former CFO, Christopher Kamon, will also stand trial for related charges. The case highlights Girardi's history of evading disciplinary action despite numerous complaints and reveals potential future charges against other senior lawyers at his firm.Thomas Girardi Found Guilty by Jury of Defrauding Clients (2)A recent decision by a German privacy regulator has sparked intense debate about how personal data is handled by AI models like large language models (LLMs). The Hamburg Commissioner for Data Protection concluded that LLMs, despite generating personal data, do not store such information in a way that makes it identifiable, challenging the notion that AI systems can retain personal data. This stance contradicts findings by technologists who argue that LLMs can memorize and reproduce specific data, including personal details. The German position could limit individuals' ability to control their data in AI systems, potentially leading to significant differences in how the U.S. and the EU regulate AI. While California is pushing for laws that explicitly protect personal data in AI, the German approach may set a precedent for a more lenient interpretation under the GDPR. This divergence highlights the complexity of applying traditional privacy laws to AI technologies, with ongoing discussions about how to reconcile these differing perspectives.By way of brief background, LLMs do not directly memorize the training material they are exposed to. Instead, they analyze vast amounts of text data and learn patterns, correlations, and structures within the language, which are then used to generate responses. This learning process involves creating a complex mathematical representation of language—a model—rather than storing specific pieces of text verbatim. However, because these models are trained on enormous datasets, they might sometimes generate outputs that resemble specific phrases or data points encountered during training, especially if those phrases are common or particularly distinctive. This can occasionally lead to the unintentional reproduction of personal or sensitive information from the training data, even though the model itself does not store or recall such information in a traditional, deliberate sense.Of course, that would all be of slim comfort to someone who sees an AI chatbot spit out their home address and social security number in response to a prompt. Personal Info in AI Models Threatens Split in US, EU ApproachSpecial Counsel Jack Smith is moving forward with prosecuting Donald Trump for allegedly attempting to overturn the 2020 election, despite a recent setback from the Supreme Court. The court found that Trump might have partial immunity from prosecution for actions taken as president, leading Smith to file a revised indictment. This new version removes claims related to Trump's communications with government officials, including efforts to involve the Justice Department, but retains the core charges accusing Trump of conspiring to reverse his election loss. The case comes as Trump campaigns for the 2024 election, adding tension to the legal proceedings. Trump criticized the indictment on social media, calling for its dismissal. The updated indictment also cuts references to former Justice Department official Jeffrey Clark as a co-conspirator and modifies Trump's description, downplaying his role as president at the time. The case now focuses more on Trump's role as a candidate rather than his presidential actions. As the case progresses, Trump faces other legal challenges, including cases involving classified documents and charges in Georgia related to the 2020 election.Trump Special Counsel Presses Ahead With 2020 Election Case (3)A U.S. appeals court has revived a lawsuit against TikTok by the mother of a 10-year-old girl who died after attempting a dangerous "blackout challenge" promoted on the platform. The Philadelphia-based 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that TikTok is not shielded by Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which typically protects internet companies from liability for user-generated content. The court found that Section 230 does not apply when TikTok's algorithm actively recommends harmful content, viewing such recommendations as the company's own speech. This decision marks a shift from previous interpretations of Section 230, which had generally protected platforms from liability for failing to prevent the spread of harmful content. The ruling overturns a lower court's dismissal of the case, allowing the mother, Tawainna Anderson, to pursue claims against TikTok and its parent company, ByteDance, following her daughter Nylah's death in 2021. The case could have significant implications for how tech companies are held accountable for the content their algorithms promote.TikTok must face lawsuit over 10-year-old girl's death, US court rules | Reuters This is a public episode.

At this point, it's become difficult to keep track of all the different places that former (and possibly future) President Donald Trump has been indicted.  To recap: he has been indicted in New York County by District Attorney Alvin Bragg.  That case has already gone to trial and he was convicted of nearly three dozen counts of falsifying business records in an attempt to cover up another crime.  That is NOT the case we discuss today.He's also been indicted in Fulton County, Georgia, on state RICO charges.  That office appears to be in a bit of a shamble as 7 months into a different RICO trial, against Young Thug, the wheels have fallen off, 2 judges have been on-and-off the case, and a mistrial seems pretty likely at this point.  This is also NOT the case covered by today's episode.There is also the case in the Middle District of Florida Federal Court regarding Trump's possession of, and refusal to return, certain classified documents.  That case was recently dismissed by Judge Aileen Cannon.  That is also NOT the case we are discussing.Today's case concern's allegations that Donald Trump attempted to use various unlawful means to subvert the election, prevent the peaceful transfer of power, and deprive ordinary citizens in several states of their right to make their voice heard in our government through voting.Chances are you are at least somewhat familiar with this indictment, but do you really know what Trump is accused of doing?  In this episode, Paul breaks down the indictment so you can understand what the Government has claimed Trump actually did to break the law, and Paul also discusses the recent decision on Presidential Immunity from the Supreme Court, as neither Trump, nor the Government, got the decision they wanted.  But if Trump lost in that hearing, why are so many commentators losing their mind over the decision?  Listen and find out.This will be part 1, as there was a lot to cover and the case is now set to go to trial, so stay tuned as (maybe) a trial episode will be coming later on!Hope you enjoy.

 Jeremy Pauley, a Pennsylvania resident, has been sentenced to two years of probation after authorities discovered buckets containing human remains inside his Enola residence. The sentencing, reported by CBS 21, follows Pauley's guilty plea to the charge of abuse of a corpse, stemming from his arrest in the summer of 2022. The disturbing case took a federal turn as Pauley faces additional charges on the federal level, including conspiracy and interstate transportation of stolen property. Despite Tuesday's sentencing related to his state charge, the specter of up to 15 years in federal prison looms over Pauley, pending a sentencing date yet to be set, as detailed by CBS 21. In a release from the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania, it was disclosed that Pauley confessed to the illicit trade of human remains stolen from prestigious institutions such as Harvard Medical School and a mortuary in Arkansas. Furthermore, Pauley acknowledged his awareness of the stolen nature of the human remains, implicating himself in a dark web of criminal activity. This grim saga implicates multiple individuals, with Pauley being just one among several indicted in the case since last June. Notably, another Pennsylvania resident, Joshua Taylor, faces charges in connection with the federal case, amplifying the scale and complexity of the investigation. In a parallel development, Candace Chapman Scott, linked to the network trafficking in human remains, faces legal scrutiny. Scott, employed by the Arkansas mortuary implicated in the ring, has been mandated by a judge to undergo a mental evaluation before her case proceeds, as reported by The Sentinel-Record in May 2023. The implications of this macabre enterprise extend beyond mere criminality. Officials have emphasized that the body parts were obtained without the knowledge or consent of Harvard Medical School, underlining the egregious nature of the operation and its ramifications for institutions entrusted with the sanctity of human remains. As authorities continue to unravel the intricate web of illegal activity, questions linger regarding the ethical and legal dimensions of handling human remains.

Jeremy Pauley, a Pennsylvania resident, has been sentenced to two years of probation after authorities discovered buckets containing human remains inside his Enola residence. The sentencing, reported by CBS 21, follows Pauley's guilty plea to the charge of abuse of a corpse, stemming from his arrest in the summer of 2022. The disturbing case took a federal turn as Pauley faces additional charges on the federal level, including conspiracy and interstate transportation of stolen property. Despite Tuesday's sentencing related to his state charge, the specter of up to 15 years in federal prison looms over Pauley, pending a sentencing date yet to be set, as detailed by CBS 21. In a release from the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania, it was disclosed that Pauley confessed to the illicit trade of human remains stolen from prestigious institutions such as Harvard Medical School and a mortuary in Arkansas. Furthermore, Pauley acknowledged his awareness of the stolen nature of the human remains, implicating himself in a dark web of criminal activity. This grim saga implicates multiple individuals, with Pauley being just one among several indicted in the case since last June. Notably, another Pennsylvania resident, Joshua Taylor, faces charges in connection with the federal case, amplifying the scale and complexity of the investigation. In a parallel development, Candace Chapman Scott, linked to the network trafficking in human remains, faces legal scrutiny. Scott, employed by the Arkansas mortuary implicated in the ring, has been mandated by a judge to undergo a mental evaluation before her case proceeds, as reported by The Sentinel-Record in May 2023. The implications of this macabre enterprise extend beyond mere criminality.

The state and federal bench has transformed in recent years, with more textualist/originalist judges appointed or elected. These changes are influencing how advocates should prepare to make winning arguments. A panel of jurists and leading litigators will offer their best advice to young advocates in making successful oral arguments and incorporating originalism and textualism into their briefs. They will offer their perspectives on how litigation tactics might change, if at all, at the appellate or trial court levels. They will also discuss why litigators play such a key role in encouraging textualist and originalist decisions.Featuring:Whitney Hermandorfer, Director of Strategic Litigation Unit and Assistant Solicitor General, Office of the Tennessee Attorney GeneralHon. Bobby Long, Judge, 1st District Court of Appeal, FloridaHon. Jay Mitchell, Associate Justice, Alabama Supreme CourtEd Wenger, Partner, Holtzman Vogel Baran Torchinsky & Josefiak PLLCModerator: Hon.

NCLA filed a Complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee challenging the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board's secret, unaccountable, and inherently biased prosecutorial processes. PCAOB has investigated and brought a secret prosecution aiming to brand NCLA's client a wrongdoer, strip away his livelihood and impose severe financial penalties against him—without a jury trial, due process of law, an impartial adjudicator, or any constitutional accountability. NCLA's client, John Doe (a pseudonym used to protect his anonymity), asks the Court to stop these disciplinary proceedings and declare them unconstitutional. Vec and Senior Litigation Counsel Russ Ryan discuss John Doe v. PCAOB.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Around 8-10% of the human genome comes from these "endogenous retroviruses," which were previously considered "junk DNA." The research identifies the MERVL endogenous retrovirus as playing a crucial role in the transition to pluripotency during early embryo development. The MERVL-gag protein from this virus was found to modulate the action of the URI gene, providing a new understanding of the symbiotic co-evolution of endogenous retroviruses with host cells.   STORY 7: Norcross Charter School To Host Open House BIA Charter School in Norcross, a tuition-free K-8 state charter school, will host an open house on February 4 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. The school focuses on maximizing students' individual talents for success in the 21st century, emphasizing personalized and project-based learning, along with computer coding.

The lottery results will be announced on March 7. RSVPs can be sent to biaopenhouse2024@biaschool.com.

In episode three of our National Case Closed Project: Supporting Best Practices in Investigation season, Just Science sat down with Lamar Fyall, Assistant United States Attorney for the District of South Carolina, Rob Lang, Assistant United States Attorney for the Middle District of North Carolina, and John Wilkinson, Attorney Advisor at AEquitas, to discuss how state, local, and federal prosecutors' offices can collaborate with law enforcement to improve case outcomes. While some law enforcement officers may have a go-to contact in their state or local prosecutor's office, more consistent collaboration and information-sharing practices can help bring violent crime offenders to justice. For example, many prosecutors work with law enforcement to better utilize the National Integrated Ballistic Information Network or NIBIN leads and other crime intelligence to supplement case evidence. Listen along as Lamar, Rob, and John describe their unique experiences building systems of communication between law enforcement and prosecutors, the evolving role of crime gun intelligence in building a case, and improving victim and witness case cooperation.

When trial lawyer Jamal Alsaffar of Austin Texas heard about the mass shooting in Lewiston, Maine, he had the eerie feeling of history repeating itself.  Many of the facts were strikingly similar to what had occurred in the Sutherland Springs church mass shooting case in Texas that Jamal tried to a Federal judge, resulting in a $230 million judgment for the families.  In the process, Jamal also forced the U.S. Government to disclose documents and information that demonstrated a long-standing pattern of failing to report dangerous, violent, and mentally unstable members of the armed forces to the FBI databank, thereby permitting tens of thousands of deranged or dangerous individuals to purchase and continue to possess firearms.  As a result of Jamal's case, he not only secured compensation for his clients, but he forced the Air Force to enact policy changes that resulted in tens of thousands of dangerous individuals being reported.  Join Ben and Rahul for their in-depth discussion with Jamal, including his journey to becoming a trial lawyer that started with him becoming a standout in high school and college mock trial competitions to becoming one of the leading lawyers in the United States in bringing claims against the Federal Government and representing victims of mass shootings. About Jamal AlsaffarMr. Alsaffar was born and raised in Dallas, Texas and is a nationally experienced trial attorney.

The United States adopted its modern environmental statutes in the 1970s. Among other innovations, Congress incorporated citizen suit provisions into the Clean Air, Clean Water Act, and Endangered Species Act. These created causes of action allowing individuals and interested entities to sue to enforce the environmental laws. At the same time, courts took an increasingly expansive view of the private citizen standing to challenge agency actions through the Administrative Procedures Act.For many years, public interest groups seeking more environmental regulation and government control took the headlines. Lately, public interest groups opposed to expanding government regulation and interested in defending the rights of property holders have achieved numerous litigation successes from district courts up to the Supreme Court. These include limitations on the enforcement reach of the Clean Water Act.This panel will examine the impact the public interest litigation has had on environmental, natural resources, and property law. It will review its place in our system and consistency with an originalist Constitution, examine some of the notable accomplishments by public interest organizations in the past several years, and discuss upcoming environmental and other administrative law cases now being pursued by public interest groups that may significantly impact environmental and administrative law going forward.Featuring:Mr. David D.

Can you issue a trial subpoena under Fed. R. Civ. P. 45 (or its state equivalents) not to a named person, but instead to a 30(b)(6)-style "Corporate Representative" and attach a list of topics? In this episode, Jim Garrity outlines the leading cases on point and discusses the arguments pro and con. The Show Notes below include a list of the cases upon which this episode is based, as well as a cite to an actual subpoena issued in this manner and the Motion to Quash that the subpoena triggered.

Corp., No. CV 18-392-GBW, 2023 WL 346243, at *2 (D. Del. Jan. 20, 2023) (“Out-of-Circuit caselaw, while more on point, has been inconsistent. In 1987, the Ninth Circuit held that a district court did not abuse its discretion when the court quashed a subpoena under Rule 45 directed towards a corporation because it had “discovered no authority ... for the proposition that the Rule 30 standards [that permit subpoenas upon a corporation] should govern Rule 45 subpoenas of witnesses.” Donoghue v. Orange Cnty., 848 F.2d 926, 932 (9th Cir. 1987). In 2013, a California district court distinguished the Ninth Circuit's ruling as having “emphasized a trial court's discretion” and as coming prior to 1991 amendments to Rule 45. See HTC Corp. v. Tech. Properties Ltd., 2013 WL 12166376, at *2 & n.9 (N.D. Cal. Sept. 20, 2013). That case relied, in part, see id., on a 2013 case, Conyers, in which a district court also required a corporate party to “comply with [a Rule 45] subpoena by producing its corporate representative at trial[,]” Conyers v. Balboa Ins. Co., 2013 WL 2450108, at *2 (M.D. Fla. June 5, 2013). However, the Sixth Circuit, in 2015, appeared to reject the Conyers decision and stated that a party which seeks to have a corporate representative testify at trial has two options: “subpoena a corporate witness who either ‘resides, is employed, or regularly transacts business in person' in [the state]” or “take[ ] a deposition of a corporate officer during discovery for its use at trial.” Hill v. Homeward Residential, Inc., 799 F.3d 544, 553 (6th Cir. 2015) (quoting Fed.R.Civ.P. 45(c)(1)(B)). The Sixth Circuit, however, held that the “subpoena failed several aspects” of Rule 45, and concluded that “the district court did not abuse its discretion in enforcing [Rule 45] as written.” Id. at 552–53")Hill v. Nat'l R. R. Passenger Corp., No. CIV. A. 88-5277, 1989 WL 87621, at *1 (E.D. La. July 28, 1989) (“Rule 30(b)(6) specifically applies to the deposition of a corporation. Rule 45 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure provides the proper procedure by which a person may be compelled to testify at a trial. There is no provision allowing the use of the 30(b)(6)-type designation of areas of inquiry or allowing service on a corporation through an agent for service of process in order to compel a particular person, who may be a corporate employee outside the subpoena power of the court, to testify at the trial. Further, plaintiff has not pointed the Court to any specific authority allowing such a procedure nor has the Court found any authority supporting the plaintiff's position. Accordingly, for the above and foregoing reasons, IT IS ORDERED that the motion of Amtrak to quash the subpoena directed to the National Railroad Passenger Corporation be hereby GRANTED and the subpoena is hereby QUASHED.”)Hill v. Homeward Residential, Inc., 799 F.3d 544, 553 (6th Cir. 2015) (finding that rules must be enforced as written, and rejecting what it called an effort to take a 30(b)(6) deposition in the middle of trial; held“Hill tries to avoid these conclusions by urging us to “temper[ ]” the “technical” Rules by interpreting them “through the lens of common sense.” Appellant Br. 24. But these rules were not made to be “tempered”; they were made to be “technical”—from the specific amount of fees tendered, to the court issuing the subpoena, to the geographic scope of the request. It is not surprising, then, that Hill can point to only one case that supports his position, Conyers v. Balboa Ins. Co., No. 8:12–CV–30–T–33EAJ, 2013 WL 2450108, at *1 (M.D.Fla. June 5, 2013) (using Rule 30 to expand Rule 45). Even if that case persuaded us that the Rules should be modified by judicial fiat, the district court did not abuse its discretion in enforcing them as written”)Smith v. Royal Caribbean Cruises, Ltd., 302 F.R.D. 688, 694 (S.D. Fla. 2014) (“Here, the use of a Rule 30(b)(6) notice upon unnamed Defendant corporative representatives, for designated testimony at trial, is both improper and ultimately unnecessary. Defendant must have a corporate representative at trial and certainly Plaintiff can call on that representative as a witness in his case in chief. By doing so, Plaintiff can obtain the testimony he now seeks through this notice. But what he cannot do is use a discovery device—a Rule 30(b)(6) notice—under the guise of a trial subpoena. The discovery period in the case is over and has been over since December 2013.”)Conyers v. Balboa Ins. Co., No. 8:12-CV-30-T-33EAJ, 2013 WL 2450108, at *2 (M.D. Fla. June 5, 2013) (“Thus, upon due consideration of the parties' arguments and the Court's evaluation of Rule 45, the Court determines that Balboa must comply with the subpoena by producing its corporate representative at trial and should promptly identify this individual so that Plaintiffs may pay the relevant fees associated with the corporate representative's travel and attendance at trial”)Williams v. Asplundh Tree Expert Co., No. 3:05CV479J33MCR, 2006 WL 2598758, at *3 (M.D. Fla. Sept. 11, 2006) (“As such, the Court holds that the corporate representative should be considered a “party” regardless of whether he/she is an officer of the company and should be produced even if he/she resides outside the 100 mile limit.”)Aristocrat Leisure Ltd. v. Deutsche Bank Tr. Co. Americas, 262 F.R.D. 293, 303 (S.D.N.Y. 2009) (“A different outcome is necessitated, however, for the subpoenas served on the corporate parties themselves. The Bondholders' objection to these subpoenas was raised only in vague terms in their moving papers and not fully addressed until reply briefing and subsequent letters to the Court.7 Regardless of whether this argument was raised in a timely manner (see infra n. 9) there is no basis under the 100–mile rule to quash the subpoenas seeking testimony of the Bondholders' corporate representatives. The Bondholders, as parties to this action, affirmatively have taken advantage of the benefits of this forum, and the Court has the power to require these parties to produce corporate representatives to testify on their behalf at trial.”)HTC Corp. v. Tech. Properties Ltd., No. 5:08-CV-00882-PSG, 2013 WL 12166376, at *2 (N.D. Cal. Sept. 20, 2013) (noting defendant's argument that “. . . Conyers v. Balboa Ins. Co., a recent case from the Middle District of Florida [is] persuasive authority that this court should deny a motion to quash a trial subpoena directed at an unnamed corporate representative;” concluding that “Rule 45 has indeed undergone both substantive and cosmetic revision since that opinion issued in 1987.9 Having reviewed Conyers as well as other more recent decisions addressing a subpoena seeking corporate testimony on listed topics from a third party located within the state of the court, the court finds that such a subpoena may be appropriately served without running afoul of the limits of Rule 45”)

Two Atlanta Women's Specialists' doctors failed to regulate Shannon's blood pressure, despite knowledge that pre-eclampsia patients pose a high risk of blood pressure-induced seizures, and failed to manage her fluid levels. As a result, Shannon suffered cardiopulmonary arrest, resulting in permanent brain damage and physical disabilities due to an extended period of time without oxygen. A Fulton County, Georgia jury delivered a $45.8 million verdict, including $9.8 million in economic loss and $18 million in compensatory damages for Shannon.

Richard Culbertson is a highly experienced Social Security attorney with over 20 years of experience in the field, based in Daytona and Orlando, Florida. He is a skilled and dedicated advocate known for his compassionate approach and personalized attention to clients. Mr. Culbertson has helped clients with a wide range of Social Security issues, including disability benefits, retirement benefits, and survivor benefits. Mr. Culbertson graduated from the University of Florida Levin College of Law in 1999 and is a National Organization of Social Security Claimants' Representatives (NOSSCR) member. He is admitted to practice law in Florida before the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida. In addition to his legal work, Mr. Culbertson is an active member of his local community, volunteering with non-profit organizations and serving on the board of directors. Key takeaways from this episode: Medical evidence is necessary for disability cases, so Culbertson established a separate agency to assist clients with health insurance coverage. The three main possibilities for health insurance coverage are Medicare, Medicaid, and the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Medicare is the gold standard and covers those 65 and older or those with Social Security Disability Insurance for 24 consecutive months. Medicaid is a welfare program for low-income individuals, but the choice of doctors is limited. The ACA offers coverage depending on the financial situation and eligibility criteria. Private insurance companies may have their requirements in the group policy, such as requiring a person to get Medicare, which could lead to issues with coverage and payments. Veterans may not have health insurance coverage through the VA, which could lead to problems with Medicare coverage. Coordination of benefits is essential, as it determines who pays first and who pays second and having multiple types of coverage can be beneficial in covering high medical expenses. Medicare has different parts, including Parts A and B, which cover hospital and medical insurance. Part C, or Advantage programs, are offered by private insurance companies and provide additional coverage beyond what Parts A and B cover. Part D covers prescription drug costs, and supplements are available to cover costs not covered by Parts A and B. Supplements become available to those aged 65 or older, and insurance companies cannot deny coverage due to pre-existing conditions.

This week, Alan, Quinta and Scott talked amongst themselves about some of the week's big national security news stories, including:“What's in a Name?” Observers of the war in Ukraine are increasingly turning to a controversial term to describe the actions of Russian forces: genocide. Why are people suddenly using this word? Is its use appropriate here?“Who's Afraid of Going Dark?” A recent expose has gone deep into the struggle between big tech companies and NSO Group, the Israeli hacking company that has provided various governments around the world with the ability to access users' phones and other protected communications. What does this tell us about the future of communications security and the role of companies like NSO Group in it.“Florida Woman Disputes Sanitation Standards.” A federal judge in the Middle District of Florida has adopted an extremely narrow reading of federal law to hold that the Biden administration lacks the legal authority to require individuals to wear masks on airplanes and other transportation systems. What does this holding tell us about where the legal debate around pandemic measures is headed?For object lessons, Alan endorsed his new favorite Norwegian time travel cop show. Quinta shouted out a piece in G. Elliot Morris's substack on why the Democrats are screwed and what can (and can't) be done about it. And Scott urged listeners to check out musician Margaret Glaspy, who he recently saw live and brings a rocky vibe and charmingly awkward dance moves to the singer-songwriter motif.Here are a few other articles and items we discussed, in no particular order:Alan's recent Lawfare Podcast interview with law professors Orin Kerr and Asaf Lubin regarding the WhatsApp v. NSO Group lawsuit;Hersch Lauterpacht's 1947 treatise “Recognition in International Law,” which is currently living on Scott's bedside table.
