However, the consent agreement with the State Bar of Arizona says otherwise. We discuss the lawsuits that Bill Kelhoffer and Afshin Afsharimehr have against Gil to silence his podcast. While both cases are weak, they're attempting to drag Gil into further litigation. We learn that on the Federal lawsuit, Andrew "Fools Gold" Gould has requested from Geoff Sturr an extension for the depositions of Brandon Rafi and Rafi Law Group employees. Despite Geoff's best efforts since June 2025 to get deposition dates, he has gone unanswered to his requests. Good luck Andrew " I can't get out of the primary" Gould in winning that motion. We close the show with the Xander Garcia and learn about his livestream ,Wager Chasers. We look back on what started the advertising frenzy that was known as AZ Hometown Law Firm.

Monica Gilroy is the Managing and Founding Member at The Gilroy Firm, a national real estate litigation and property management law firm. She has over 30 years of experience in real estate litigation, title insurance defense, foreclosure, bankruptcy, and fair housing matters. Monica is a Georgia Super Lawyer, a National Title Professional, and a frequent speaker at state and national industry conferences. She has also chaired the State Bar of Georgia's Real Property Law Section and serves on national committees for the American Land Title Association. In this episode… Sometimes the biggest risks in real estate aren't the ones you can see, but the ones hiding in old walls and window frames. Lead-based paint has quietly resurfaced as a major compliance challenge for property managers and owners, fueled by shifting regulations and increasing enforcement. With rules quickly changing, how do you protect your business and your tenants? According to Monica Gilroy, a nationally recognized real estate attorney, the danger comes from misunderstanding how much the landscape has shifted. She explains that two long-standing protections property managers relied on were removed without much warning, leaving companies exposed in ways they've never been before. Suddenly, managers are required to hold certifications even when they're not the ones doing the work, and they share full liability even if a certified contractor makes the mistake. Monica illustrates how simple oversights like missing initials or an unfamiliar brochure can balloon into tens of thousands of dollars in penalties. Her take is clear: awareness and proactive preparation aren't optional anymore; they're the only way to stay ahead of an aggressive enforcement environment. In this episode of The Same Day Podcast, host Yoni Schmidt sits down with Monica Gilroy, Managing and Founding Member at The Gilroy Firm, to discuss the shifting responsibilities around lead-based paint compliance. You'll learn why the EPA's rule changes caught much of the industry off guard, how minor documentation errors can lead to major fines, and what types of repairs trigger mandatory lead-based paint safe practices.

Want to know why bad AI cites really bother the courts? Jeff and Tim discuss two recent fake-AI-cites cases imposing sanctions and State Bar referrals, and draw this conclusion: It's not that AI is bad at law—in one of these cases, the court noted that none of the AI mistakes even went in the direction of helping the offending party. Rather, the problem is that AI is just bad at citing and quoting the law. And the courts are super-protective against our legal canon becoming polluted with hallucinations.Blame game backfires: In Shayan v. Shakib, appellant's counsel blamed non-attorney staff for adding the bad AI cites to the brief. The mistakes didn't really change the arguments, and the court ordered counsel to file a corrected version. But the outcome is going to be the same, plus $7500 sanctions and a State Bar referral.Gatekeeping function: Courts emphasize that even when fabricated citations don't advance a party's position, they still threaten "the integrity of courts and the legal profession" by risking that fake law becomes cited as real precedent.We discuss updates in the Boies Schiller/Scientology case, and whether these recent cases predict the result.Voluntary dismissal dilemma: Tim's firm filed an amicus brief in the Maniago case, arguing that voluntary dismissals with prejudice should be treated as appealable final judgments, challenging the rule that clerk-entered dismissals are merely "ministerial acts."Heated bench: A Texas redistricting case features an unusually scathing dissent beginning with "The main winners from Judge Brown's opinion are George Soros and Gavin Newsom," raising questions about appropriate judicial temperament.

Tune In to Talk Law Radio: Slam Dunk Your Vote on the Spurs Arena Future! Will Bexar County tip off a game-changing downtown revival—or pass on the play that keeps the Spurs in San Antonio for generations? Join host Todd Marquardt this week on Talk Law Radio as we break down the high-stakes Bexar County election showdown: Propositions A and B. These aren't just ballot measures—they're the key to unlocking Project Marvel, a $3-4 billion sports and entertainment district that could deliver a state-of-the-art Spurs arena, rodeo expansions, and economic fireworks downtown. But with critics calling foul on taxpayer risks and the mayor urging caution, is this a winning shot or a risky buzzer-beater? Todd dives deep into the venue tax hike (from 1.75% to 2% on hotels and rentals—paid by visitors, not locals), the $311 million arena fund, and what it means for our city's future. Don't sit on the bench—tune in and get courtside on the facts! "

As the saying goes, a good lawyer knows the law, a great lawyer knows the judge. Building credibility with the court in any case is vital. Veteran attorney and longtime judge Mark Drummond explains why and how you earn trust.  Trust and credibility are built brick by brick. It takes a lifetime to build your reputation, but breach that trust once, and the judge will never forget. And make no mistake, judges talk among themselves, so willful missteps will be known across the courthouse and for the rest of your career.  Understand the meaning of “candor to the tribunal.” When dealing with a judge, telling the truth is one thing. That can mean presenting the strengths of your case. But candor is what you also share with the judge beyond that, the thorns of the case. Judges who feel you weren't completely candid may never fully take you at your word again. They may forever wonder what you're withholding.

As the saying goes, a good lawyer knows the law, a great lawyer knows the judge. Building credibility with the court in any case is vital. Veteran attorney and longtime judge Mark Drummond explains why and how you earn trust.  Trust and credibility are built brick by brick. It takes a lifetime to build your reputation, but breach that trust once, and the judge will never forget. And make no mistake, judges talk among themselves, so willful missteps will be known across the courthouse and for the rest of your career.  Understand the meaning of “candor to the tribunal.” When dealing with a judge, telling the truth is one thing. That can mean presenting the strengths of your case. But candor is what you also share with the judge beyond that, the thorns of the case. Judges who feel you weren't completely candid may never fully take you at your word again. They may forever wonder what you're withholding. If you've ever wondered what a judge is thinking about you, Judge Drummond lets you know and shares some of his favorite tips for building credibility and putting your best foot forward from the moment you walk into the courtroom.  Resources:  Previous appearance on the Legal Talk Network, “NYU's Civil Jury Project (State Bar of Texas Annual Meeting 2024),” State Bar of Texas Podcast American Bar Association “Free Legal Answers”  Civil Jury Project, NYU School of Law  Susman Agreements: Clarity for the Rules of Civil Procedure  Access to Counsel Project, Federal Bar Counsel  “Dealing With Jerks,” by Judge Mark Drummond in ABA Litigation News  “Understanding the Pareto Principle (The 80/20 Rule),” Better Explained  American Bar Association American Bar Association Litigation Section Learn more about your ad choices.

As the dust settles from Charlie Kirk's assassination on September 10, 2025, a firestorm of firings and expulsions has erupted over social media posts expressing "joy" or criticism about his death. This segment probes whether these private and public employer actions violate First Amendment protections, unpacking the legal boundaries of speech in workplaces and campuses. Does the conservatives' push for "consequences" undermines the very free speech Kirk championed? In the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination and the massive memorial service on September 21, 2025, at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, this segment dissects the event's fusion of evangelical fervor and Republican rallying cries. Drawing on legal, cultural, and theological lenses, the hosts explore how the service blurred sacred and secular boundaries, raising questions about the entanglement of Christianity and politics—and whether such mergers risk turning national devotion into a form of idolatry.

(I'm editing and finalizing this podcast in an airport. So please excuse any small glitches or errors today. I thought it important to get this podcast out asap.)Most people may have heard of Charlie Kirk in passing before he was assassinated on September 10, but if you are not “Gen Z” you likely didn't know much about him. I certainly didn't - until a few months ago when he hosted a debate at one of his Turning Point conferences. The discussion focused on whether America should support Israel and featured Josh Hammer - our STLV guest today - and Dave Smith, a “comedian” turned geopolitical expert. You can find the link to that podcast below, in the notes. It's worhh to watching.Josh had a long conversation with Charlie and a few others on the night before his murder. They discussed a range of issues relating to Israel, antisemitism and Jews. Charlie was preparing. He told Josh that 50% - FIFTY PERCENT - of the questions he dealt with these days were about - Jews. That is astonishing.Turning Point is an advocacy organization founded by Kirk which over the years has become one of the most influential political groups in America and, possibly, beyond. Not until his death did the extraordinary reach of this young man become apparent to - the masses. He had certainly made a name for himself among young Americans, touring relentlessly to speak and engage on critical issues: social, foreign, and economic policy. He angered many and affirmed others. He opened and probably closed minds. Charlie was tenacious, hardworking, sincere, and head strong. He was unwavering in his beliefs. All of them. Recently, he had also come under attack by more than the usual detractors. Very big names in the podcast world - with millions of followers - turned on Kirk. They accused him of being a stooge for Israel. Some said he was rethinking his support for Israel and Jewish people and more than suggest that this angered the “wrong people.” Blame the Jews. Since his brutal death they've doubled down. It's beyond ghoulish.I was shaken and shocked when I heard about Kirk's murder. A young man. Earnest. Engaged. A husband and father. Gunned down while speaking to a group of students, as his wife and children watched. That our society has become so hateful, so dumb, so violent, should make us all stop. Think. And then think again. No bad pun intended but Kirk's assassination may well mark a turning point for America and western civilization. This epic war being waged on the foundational values of western liberal democracy is real. Dangerous. And could well destroy our way of life if we do not wake up. That was Charlie's message as well. I share some - but not all - of his views. But that's irrelevant. This isn't about me. What kind of world do we want to live in?Show your support for STLV at buymeacoffee.com/stateoftelavivJosh Hammer is the author of the new book, Israel and Civilization: The Fate of the Jewish Nation and the Destiny of the West.
