From 2005 to 2015 this blog presented news items and resources relating to trial advocacy and the legal system, with a focus on Washington State. It was developed to support the Trial Advocacy Program at the University of Washington School of Law, but broadened to include appellate practice, the courts, access to justice, and related topics. It is no longer active.

Another Pop Culture Story
Maybe because it's a Saturday, my eye has been caught by pop culture stories -- the employment law blog based on "The Office" and the odd John Waters series on Court TV. Here's a story that really puts the pop in pop culture: Frivolous Litigation: How Coke 'Punk'd' Its Lawyers, Fulton County Daily Report (law.com), March 26, 2007. It's about those Coke Zero commercials where they have Coca-Cola executives asking the lawyers if they can sue Coke Zero for taste infringement. Apparently they really didn't let the lawyers in on the joke until they'd been filming for 20 minutes.
