Gavina v. Amazon.com-Word version
(word version of case immediately above)
I hope everyone is having a great holiday season. The way it looks for me is I believe I’m going to get two blog entries up this week and then…
Before getting started on the blog entry for the week, I did finish Over Ruled. What is clear from reading the book, is that Justice Gorsuch clearly believes that the administrative state had gotten too big and that sufficient guardrails for the administrative state do not exist. Also, from reading that book, it is pretty…
As I anticipated, it was not possible for me to get a blog entry up last week with all the traveling I was doing. However, I am back now. Recently, HHS came out with their final 504 regulations, which we previously blogged on the proposed regulations here. There were a few changes that are…

It was decided on December 27, 2022, and it is a published decision from the Fourth Circuit. It is a case concerning the effective communication obligations of hospitals to their patients and to…
To start the new year, we are going to have a short discussion of a couple of cases dealing with attorney fees in the serial plaintiff context. Then, we are going to explore the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act that was just signed by Pres. Biden as part of the massive bill to keep the government…
