Download or read book Kill All the Lawyers? written by Daniel Kornstein and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two-thirds of Shakespeare?s plays have trial scenes, and many deal specifically with lawyers, courts, judges, and points of law. Daniel Kornstein, a practicing attorney, looks at the legal issues and aspects of Shakespeare?s plays and finds fascinating parallels with many legal and social questions of the present day. The Elizabethan age was as litigious as our own, and Shakespeare was very familiar with the language and procedures of the courts. Kill All the Lawyers? examines the ways in which Shakespeare used the law for dramatic effect and incorporated the passion for justice into his great tragedies and comedies and considers the modern legal relevance of his work. ø This is a ground-breaking study in the field of literature and the law, ambitious and suggestive of the value of both our literary and our legal inheritance.

Book excerpt: Samantha Adams leaves the West Coast to return home to Atlanta and a cushy job as a reporter for the Journal Constitution. She didn't think Atlanta had changed that much, but maybe it had if they thought she was stupid enough to think the corruption of rural sheriffs wasn't worth investigating. When a distinguished attorney is found dead in a backwoods ravine, the sheriff rules it as an accident. Samantha doesn't buy that explanation and delves into a scandal of dirty money and adultery that stretches from Atlanta's society salons to the saloons of the good old boys. It was a treacherous setup that killed an honest attorney and it might just do the same to a stubborn lady reporter.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: P.I. Holland Taylor returns in David Housewright’s Edgar Award-winning series with First, Kill the Lawyers, where Taylor is hired to recover stolen files before they are leaked, ruining more than just the careers of five local lawyers. Five prominent attorneys in Minneapolis have had their computer systems hacked and very sensitive case files stolen. Those attorneys are then contacted by an association of local whistleblowers known as NIMN and are quietly alerted that they have received those documents from an anonymous source. If those files are released, then not only will those lawyers be ruined, but it might even destroy the integrity of the entire Minnesota legal system. This group of lawyers turns to Private Investigator Holland Taylor with a simple directive: stop the disclosure any way you can. But while the directive is simple, the case is not. To find the missing files and the person responsible, Holland must first dive into the five cases covered in the files—divorce, bribery, class action, rape, and murder. While Taylor is untangling the associates and connections between the cases and families affected, things take another mysterious turn and the time before the files are released is running out. As the situation becomes more threatening, Holland Taylor is trapped in the middle of what is legal and what is ethical—between right, wrong, and deadly.

Download or read book Schools for Misrule written by Walter Olson and published by Encounter Books. This book was released on 2011-03-01 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Barack Obama (Harvard and Chicago) to Bill and Hillary Clinton (Yale), many of our current national leaders emerged from the rarefied air of the nation's top law schools. The ideas taught there in one generation often shape national policy in the next. The trouble is, Walter Olson reveals in Schools for Misrule, our elite law schools keep churning out ideas that are catastrophically bad for America. From class action lawsuits that promote the right to sue anyone over anything, to court orders mandating the mass release of prison inmates; from the movement for slavery reparations, to court takeovers of school funding—all of these appalling ideas were hatched in legal academia. And the worst is yet to come. A fast-rising movement in law schools demands that sovereignty over U.S. legal disputes be handed over to international law and transnational courts. It is not by coincidence, Olson argues, that these bad ideas all tend to confer more power on the law schools' own graduates. In the overlawyered society that results, they are the ones who become the real rulers.

Book excerpt: Someone is killing lawyers, but a particular vampire lawyer won’t stay dead. Donovan Trait is a marked man. He is flamboyant, stunningly handsome, and notoriously insatiable, but his attitude and style belie his skills in the courtroom. No one survives a cross-examination at Donovan’s hands. His knowledge of the law and trial practice has accumulated over the years… and years, of experience. More than three hundred years. You see, when Donovan isn’t seducing judges and juries, he’s a creature of the night. And now that someone has decided that it’s time to kill all lawyers, his lust for attention has set him in the murderer’s sights. The problem is that vampires don’t die. Not easily, anyway. That’s good news for Donovan, not so much for his very human lady love, also a target of the serial killer. Will several unsuccessful attempts on his life expose Donovan’s true nature? Will the killer learn the secret that will guarantee a permanent death? Or will Donovan finally manage to put an end to the killer’s murderous spree and live happily ever after, with his lady love?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charged with defending the convicted and unrepentant mass murderer Ted Bundy during the last three years of his life, newly-minted Washington, D. C. attorney Polly Nelson fought to keep him out of the electric chair. In the now-classic Defending the Devil, she recounts with powerful honesty her own challenging role in the drama. Viewing herself as a compassionate humanitarian first, Nelson reveals her struggle to uphold her professional vow to represent her client (and try to save his life) while simultaneously being deeply mortified by the magnitude of his heinous crimes. Bundy's legal proceedings are meticulously recounted here, offering an eye-opening glimpse into the complex judicial appeals system. In addition to her fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the court proceedings, Nelson offers her unique insight into the mind of the killer. She paints a portrait of him as something less-than the diabolical evil genius suggested by his notoriety. While making no excuses for his despicable actions and acknowledging his "absolute misogyny," Nelson explores psychological angles to the case that many previously ignored. Showing a decidedly humanist slant, she brings Bundy's overt mental illness to the fore and makes a compelling case against the use of capital punishment. While ultimately unable to stay Bundy's execution, Nelson found a true calling in the fight to appeal the sentence. With candor and wit, she shares her own personal journey of emotional and intellectual transformation as a lawyer. "I was born to represent Ted Bundy," she writes.

Download or read book Secret Will written by Paul Chapman and published by . This book was released on 2021-03-17 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than four centuries have passed since Shakespeare wrote his glorious plays, and it is little wonder that the meaning of many of the references in them escapes modern audiences. That's a shame, because they are packed with cryptic allusions to the fascinating people, dramatic events, juicy gossip, lurid scandals, gripping court battles, treacherous conspiracies and outrageous acts of insolence he encountered during his lifetime. To know these background stories is to understand and enjoy his works so much more. In Secret Will, Paul Chapman peels back the curtain to reveal the real Shakespeare and the world that lies hidden behind those quill-scratched pages. He does so by examining key passages from the plays and then asking searching questions about how they relate to the tempestuous times in which he lived. Why, for instance, does A Midsummer Night's Dream contain clear references to the illicit love affair between Elizabeth I and Robert Dudley? How might one of the biggest earthquakes in the history of the British Isles have inspired intriguing lines in Romeo and Juliet? Has Shakespeare immortalised as Ophelia a young woman named Katherine Hamlett, who drowned when he was young? How is a speech in Hamlet connected to the brazen abduction of an Elizabethan schoolboy?Does Shakespeare pour out the raw grief he feels over the death of his young son in heartbreaking lines in King John? Should his most famous stage direction - 'Exit, pursued by a bear' - actually read 'Exit, pursued by a polar bear'? Is he teasing us with a veiled clue to the identity of the mysterious 'Dark Lady' of his desires in Twelfth Night? What do his plays tell us about London's sleazy sex industry, with its legions of prostitutes known as Winchester Geese? Why was the famous Globe theatre threatened by a courtroom drama alleging it was built using stolen timbers, and what led to it burning down? Did a rancorous legal battle between three feuding sisters over their senile father's estate inspire the towering tragedy that is King Lear? And what in the world was the dancing horse?These, and many more such questions, are answered in Secret Will. As well as being a fascinating work of biography, Secret Will has the flavour of a detective saga with all its hints and clues. Links to quotes from Shakespeare's works make the book a gripping page turner for both the aficionado and casual reader alike. 'All the world's a stage, ' Shakespeare once wrote. Secret Will reveals the astonishing story of how he really did put his world on the stage. Readers of this book may never watch a play by the Bard in same way again.
