Your Tuesday Morning Round Up.

Hi kids, big news -- Gwynne Young wins the Florida Bar run off!

Oh I'm kidding, the big news down here, broke by David,  is Gene Stearns convincing Judge Ungaro to grant his 50(b) motion and throw out the jury's verdict against BankAtlantic.

Guess it really was the worst trial Gene's ever seen.

Does this vindicate the overall approach to the litigation by the defendant (which just posted a $22.9 million loss this quarter)?

Hard to say as we're somewhat in uncharted territory, though it's a major concession by the Judge that things could have/would have/should have proceeded differently.

In other news, Glenn Garvin thinks NYT readers are deviant liberals who love big black c*%k.

Hey, I just report this stuff!

(I'm joking, he just randomly selected a few books to highlight the average content of the NYT Sunday book reviews.)

Not Exactly a Fun Email to Write.

Just got this from my friend Gwynne who has run a very solid campaign for Florida Bar President and we wish both her and Skip well:

This is a correction of the e-mail sent by me which incorrectly listed "William A. Davis, Member, Board of Governors, The Florida Bar," as endorsing my candidacy for President-Elect of the Florida Bar. This was a reference to Board Member William H. Davis, who is on the Board of Governors; and he does not endorse my candidacy. 

Ouch -- that's some correction!
