Sure, but when it comes to power, you can't wish away its existence. Someone will have it. So how do you best mitigate the bad effects it can have? Do you let an entity which does not align with your interests have it? Or do you mainta

This observation is the central topic explored by Dream Teams , which I'm currently almost done reading. I'm not sure if I'd recommend it, though; I like the writing style but your blurb contains a solid 50-60% of the book&#

The APA is not raised at all in any of my points and this is a state level matter so the 14th governs. I've linked the brief where you can see that this is a municipal affair in Virginia. But regardless of the jurisdiction of the claus

Yes. That's what they did. They couldn't address the due process claim because it was poorly argued at first instance and the 'proper' formulation was not addressed as it was not raised earlier. Then they went off and us

Nerd away. I love it. Administrative law, the 101 course, is not the same as Administrative law, the body of legal knowledge and principles, but they're certainly related. The case in question has a very specific Administrative law seg

Took a while to be able to reply! Some constitutional law is also administrative law. Much in the same way that constitutional law can also be part of the law of contracts or part of the law of torts. Administrative law is the law relating

This isn't quite right, although it's close. The question isn't whether or not a politician has the right to block. It's whether or not a politician, acting as a politician, has the right to block. If the individual had

I had a few conversations with Blizzard devs during the now infamous panels. They have no idea why people are angry with them. None. But that's not surprising, because they have no idea why their company was loved in the first place. T

In my line of work, whistleblower complaints often result in very concrete investigations and mitigative action being taken. One key similarity between these issues is that the problem is dealt with internally as discretely as possible. Som

Normally injunctive relief of this type is awarded in the event that there is irreperable harm, but Qualcomm could be compensated by a per-unit license fee + penalty damage award on sold infringing items. That's why I'm surprised.

I think the more interesting part is that Apple applied for a stay pending appeal and were denied . I'm probably going to need to read the reasons directly to figure out how Qualcomm managed to get that done.

No, Qualcomm needs to post money for bonds so that if the ruling is overturned on appeal, they have funds locked away to compensate Apple. NB: the case does not deal with all IPhones, so a segment of the product line will still be vendible.

Depends what class of building you're renting in. A Class B building might tidy up the place, but if you're springing for a Class A building, prestige is what you're buying into.

That could be the case! But was it clear in the article? I just reread it and the author doesn't indicate where he works at all. He does, however, quote himself saying: "[...] I’m pretty sure I’ve written that exact code?"
