    WHAT'S AMISS? THE LAWYERING INTEREST IN..., 65 Consumer Fin. L.Q.... 65 Consumer Fin. L.Q. Rep. 151 Consumer Finance Law Quarterly Report Spring/Summer, 2011 Plus Jonathan C. Lipsona1 Copyright © 2011 by Conference on Consumer Finance Law; Jonathan C. Lipson WHAT'S AMISS? THE LAWYERING INTEREST IN “MISCELLANEOUS” CONTRACT PROVISIONS I. Introduction A. Why Do Contracts Have “Miscellaneous” Provisions? This basic question raises several subsidiary questions. First, what do we mean by “miscellaneous” provisions? How do we distinguish the miscellaneous from the “non-miscellaneous” parts? Second - and more importantly - how do we assess the merits of various miscellaneous provisions? What work - if any - do these provisions do in the contracts of which they are a part? Miscellaneous provisions are generally the terms at the back of an agreement that deal with a variety of matters secondary to the “heart” of the contract (e.g., the sale of stock or the granting of a security interest). Some address future disputes (choice of law; choice of venue). Others address more technical matters (rules of construction; notice provisions). These may (perhaps pejoratively) be characterized as boilerplate. Yet, they tend at bottom to deal with something vital to the deal, even as it may be ancillary: what happens if things change? Thus, miscellaneous provisions not only contemplate litigation (implying breach, certainly a kind of change), but also rules on the rights of successors and assigns, how the parties should interpret the language of the contract, and so on. This brief essay argues that miscellaneous provisions exist as much to benefit lawyers as clients, reflecting a kind of “lawyering interest” in the design and execution of contracts.

SUSMAN, P.C., born Houston, Texas; admitted to Bars of Texas, District of Columbia, New York, and Colorado. Steve Susman was a titan. His professional success can be measured in many ways: his founding and building of the premier litigation boutique, Susman Godfrey; his extraordinary record of winning complex, high-profile cases for both plaintiffs and defendants, large and small; the number of young lawyers he mentored, molded, encouraged, and believed in; and his personal crusade to enhance and preserve civil jury trials. He accumulated almost countless professional honors and awards over a legal career that spanned 55 years. He had a deep-rooted commitment to justice and the rule of law. Career History The Early Years A native Houstonian from a highly respected family of lawyers, Susman worked his way through Yale University, graduating magna cum laude in 1962. Returning to his home state and the University of Texas Law School, he served as Editor-in-Chief of the Law Review and graduated first in his class, with the highest-grade point average in the school’s history at that time. After serving as a law clerk to The Honorable John R. Brown of the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, Susman clerked for then-United States Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black. A biography of Justice Black revealed that Susman was the first law clerk whom Black trusted to draft opinions for him. Early in his career, Susman joined a large Houston-based firm, quickly rising through the ranks to become a partner.

  • Scott Humphries on Gibbs & Bruns' Big Mortgage Cases
    Q&A: ScottHumphries on Gibbs & Bruns’ big mortgage cases 12/17/13 REUTERS LEGAL 11:00:00 REUTERS LEGAL Copyright © 2013 Thomson Reuters December 17, 2013 Q&A: Scott Humphries on Gibbs & Bruns’ big mortgage cases Karen Freifeld NEW YORK (Reuters) - Scott Humphries is a managing partner at the Houston-based litigation boutique Gibbs & Bruns. Gibbs & Bruns represents institutional investors in proposed multibillion settlements with Bank of America Corp and JPMorgan Chase and Co over mortgage-backed securities trusts issued before the financial crisis. Reuters asked Humphries how the firm developed the lucrative niche. The questions and answers have been edited for clarity and brevity. Reuters: How did a little firm like Gibbs & Bruns get involved in these huge mortgage securities settlements? Humphries: I think the genesis goes back to a case in the early 1990s where a number of institutional investors were defrauded in a bond deal that dealt with prisons in Texas. (Partners) Robin Gibbs and Kathy (Patrick) won a huge verdict in the case against a number of investment banks and law firms. That introduced us to the institutional investment community. Reuters: Is that when you developed a relationship with Pimco, the giant bond manager you represent in the mortgage-backed securities cases? Humphries: No, we were introduced to Pimco a little later. Our first substantial work for Pimco and our entry into the asset-backed world was a case we filed in 2003 in healthcare securities, a security that went from AAA to bankrupt in 30 days. Pimco and 25 other institutional investors hired us to go and chase the bad guys in that case, National Century Financial Enterprises.

His Essay1 shows us that a full understanding of litigation abuse can only come from a deep inquiry into the motivations and incentives of all those involved, not just the senior litigators who “run” big cases, but also their partners and associates, their clients, the judges before whom they appear, and the broader legal and social environment in which their actions take place.

    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION This chapter presents the introduction of the research. It describes background of the study, problem statement, limitation of the study, objectives of the study, benefits of the study, and thesis organization. A. Background of the Study Legal process is an effort for the parties who have conflicts to get the best solution. Society considers that the law has been enforced suitable to its function to defend the human rights. The lawyers help the clients who have the conflicts, but many lawyers who do the illegal ways. They utilize the situation by providing services based on their own interest and doing legal malpractice. According to Schneeman (2000: 14), legal malpractice is an attorney’s failure to serve his client because he violates professional standard of care. Lawyers who defend legal malpractice must carefully consider the special doctrine in assessing and handling the cases. An attorney who acts unethically and violates the applicable code of ethics may be subject to disciplinary action and possible sanctions. Legal malpractice occurs in other countries, such as Indonesia. In Indonesia, there are many lawyers who depend the guilty clients by demanding a lot of money for the services. The lawyers manipulate data and collaborate with the regulatory agencies in order that the cases run quickly and they do not get the pinalty. Besides, lawyers also exist in social media in order to famous (Kusumohamidjojo, 2013). 1 2 Besides, lawyers also exist in social media in order to famous (Kusumohamidjojo, 2013). The issue in legal process not only concerns of the jurists and the lawyers but also the novelists.

I actually really like Grisham books, I have for just about as long as I've liked books at all. And yet, he apparently lost the fire somewhere along the way, and "mailed in" some formulaic evanescent stories with stiff, largely unlikeable and forgettable characters, and unrealistic plots see The Brethren as Exhibit 1. View all 4 comments. This was a fun book; lots of twists in the plot, funny dialog, and generally unpredictable. Name that government! To be fair, my best evidence that Grisham's books are a guilty pleasure with limited literary merit is that the characters and plots of his two dozen or so legal thrillers all blend into each other in my head. As teenagers, both boys kept Wally busy with their string of arrests on various drug charges. And Well, I had great plans to jot down some notes and quotes to share with you about John Grisham's newest book - The Litigators.
