I definitely picked the right law school... by Tim Marman

I just got an pre-invitation for the 54th Annual Fordham Law Alumni Association New York State Bar Luncheon (whew!). Lunch on Friday, Jan 25th starts at 12:30, preceded by cocktails starting at 11:30. Seriously - cocktail hour at 11:30 on a Friday? I...

Taking on WestLaw and LexisNexis by Tim Marman

Carl Malamud is taking on WestLaw and LexisNexis . Carl Malamud has this funny idea that public domain information ought to be... well, public. He has a history of creating public access databases on the net when the provider of the data has failed to...

It's finally starting to sink in that I'm done with law school. After nearly 4 years, I received my J.D. on Sunday as part of Fordham's 100th graduation class. Because we were a "special" class, commencement was held in the Metropolitan Opera next to...

I'm officially done with my first year of law school... by Tim Marman

Absurd Legal Fees? by Tim Marman

Microsoft gets a bill for $258M for legal fees. Read more here . I haven't seen anyone discuss this on the “blawgs” yet, but I am interested to hear what they say. Sure seems a bit excessive to me... What gets me most is the $1,000 an hour...

Yes, I said it: Law school exams are (almost) fun... by Tim Marman

Law professors have a standard formula for exam questions: read this hypothetical situation and analyze any relevant issues. True to form, my Criminal Law test is more of the same. Some say that this isn't necessarily very creative , but I don't mind...

I'm halfway there (and yes, I'm living on a prayer) by Tim Marman

Two down, two to go. Luckily I think I got the hardest of my two exams out of the way now - Contracts and Property. I have Criminal Law this Thursday, followed by Torts the following Thursday. I'm not terribly worried about either of them, which is good...
