FOLO – Kirk v. Pope: Strange Event #4?
Kirk v. Pope: Strange Event #4? According to the Jerry Mitchell C/L story linked above, in reducing the damages, Judge DeLaughter did something else. The C/L story says: “In 2003, DeLaughter lowered Kirk’s award to $400,000, saying Pope’s trial counsel was inadequate.” That is very unusual thing for a judge to put in an order,…

FOLO – Ya think the F.B.I. reads FOLO
Ya think the F.B.I. reads FOLO Again today, Mitchell must report that he can’t locate his old friend DeLaughter for comment; nor, of course, has anybody espied Ed Peters since approximately the dawn of Scruggsiana; nor will a one of the lawyers involved in Kirk or Eaton give Jerry a moment either. And since Dickie…

ICLAWBLOG – Scruggs Nation, January 28
Scruggs Nation, January 28 Just some brief items today. I’ve got some good Scruggs-related documents, but I’ll see if I can get them posted tomorrow. Monday morning is a wicked time to post, and Monday in January in Portland is even worse. T.S. Eliot said April is the cruellest month, but I’ll put my money…

Evangelicals divided on best choice in the presidential race
The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal Editorial, 1/27/8 If you enjoy following politics like I do, this presidential campaign season is just becoming a whole lot of fun.

Barbour budget: Legislature faces prioritizing
The Clarion-Ledger Editorial, 1/28/8 As he telegraphed in both his inaugural address and in his “State of the State” address earlier this month, Gov. Haley Barbour recommended an austere state budget totaling $5.6 billion.

Senate: Bryant brings different style
The Clarion-Ledger, 1/27/8 While the political infighting in the Mississippi House of Representatives has drawn most of the attention during the opening weeks of the 2008 session of the Legislature, the state Senate has been quietly but effectively getting the people’s business done.

Higher ed: Stable funding an issue
The Clarion-Ledger, 1/27/8 When former secretary of state Eric Clark was chosen to head the state’s two-year college board, he brought a very public – and popular – face to administering higher education.
