SOME 305 IN THE 212

 In the staid hallways of the Thurgood Marshall courthouse in the SDNY, lawyers in thousand-dollar overcoats who have reservations at Nobu for seven pm after the trial, pass each other and nod collegially as they head to court to battle over SEC violations and interpretations of rule 10b-5 issues. 

Until this week, when Mr. Markus and Ms. Moss (Batman and Batgirl? The Green Hornet and Cato? Let us know your thoughts) brought a little of the 305 into the 212. Apparently their client bumped into the lawyers of his former partner who is now cooperating. He may have told them in no uncertain terms to perform a profoundly private act with themselves, singularly, and without the belief that it would be satisfying. 

The US Attorneys raced to the Judge. "Much ado about nothing" Mr, Markus huffed, and the trial continued. 

The encounter is familiar to those of us who have spent a lot of time either on the other side of the East River, or in the REGJB, or both. 

Our favorite suggestion came from a harried PD who we once overheard suggesting to a cop that he engage in an aerial attempt at copulation with a rolling donut.  

The Law360 article detailing the contretemps is here. The trial continues, feathers ruffled.

Margot and Markus have tried a lot of cases this year all over the place. Old school.
