Beware: the Robinson-Patman Act Still Has Bite	Top
In their Antitrust Trade and Practice column, Neal R. Stoll and Shepard Goldfein, partners at Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, write that although the Robinson-Patman Act has long been considered a stepchild of the antitrust laws, overshadowed by its more popular older siblings Sherman and Clayton, businesses, particularly sellers of goods, need to be aware of Robinson-Patman, not only as a potential tool, but also as a threat to consider when bringing suit against, or altering an arrangement with a customer.
Revealing Your Client's 'Guilt' When He Sues You	Top
In his Ethics and Criminal Practice column, Stroock & Stroock & Lavan's Joel Cohen, writes: You litigated your heart out for a client whom you relentlessly claimed to be innocent. But despite your Herculean efforts, the jury simply didn't buy the alibi so poignantly delivered at trial by his girlfriend. After two years in prison, for a variety of reasons largely arising from incorrect rulings by the trial judge, the client gains a reversal, and then decides to sue you for legal malpractice.

Outside Counsel: Are Insured's Legal Fees a Consequence of 'Bi-Economy' and 'Panasia'?	Top
Yale Glazer, a partner at Lazare Potter & Giacovas, writes that since the Court of Appeals in 2008 "changed the landscape" for consequential damages claims asserted against insurance companies, insureds are pointing to the courts's holdings in Bi-Economy and Panasia as a purported basis to demand another category of relief—the legal fees they incur in bringing their coverage lawsuits, even in the absence of any allegations of insurer bad faith.
