| Texas Equusearch Sues Casey Anthony Alleging Unjust Enrichment | Top |
| In 2008, the famed missing-person search group based in Dickinson — Texas Equusearch Mounted Search and Recovery — spent more than $100,000 on two large-scale but futile searches in Florida for the missing 2-year-old daughter of Casey Anthony. Now Texas Equusearch has filed a complaint against Casey Anthony alleging she fraudulently represented to the organization that Caylee was alive and missing when in fact she was dead, and Casey was unjustly enriched as a result. | |
| Commentary: A Day in the Life of a Regulatory Lawyer | Top |
| Lawyers might think one could become lonely as a Food and Drug Administration regulatory attorney in the Lone Star state, says Rebecca Jones McKnight. Most lawyers in her line of work spend the bulk of their time closer to the other Capitol, the one that is 7 feet shorter than the Texas Capitol. But with the wonders of technology and periodic trips to D.C., she never has a lonely or boring day. | |
| Discipline | Top |
| A Brazos County lawyer has been placed on probation, a Harris County lawyer has resigned his license in lieu of discipline, and a Dallas County lawyer has been publicly reprimanded. | |

| Five Steps to Persuading an Audience | Top |
| Persuasion is the act of inducing someone to do something through reasoning or argument. Too often, lawyers confuse advocacy with persuasion, write Lisa Blue Baron and Robert B. Hirschhorn. Advocacy is the art of presenting a client's position in the best possible light. Persuasion, on the other hand, is convincing the listener that the lawyer is right. Here are five things all lawyers can do to increase their persuasive ability in the conference room, boardroom and courtroom. | |
| Trial Time in Patent Cases | Top |
| The time allotted to a jury trial needs to carefully balance the rights of the litigants, jurors, and trial judges. Arriving at a reasonable balance, however, is not an easy task, especially in patent cases where complicated legal theories and complex technologies are involved, write Timothy J. Malloy and James R. Nuttall. | |
