Folks on Instagram keep saying they are leaving and joining BlueSky - I'm like wow I can't believe this cheerful stay at home mom wants to join a platform that is exclusively bickering law professors and depressing posts about Ohio politics. But then I realized that is my bad oops

👏GREAT NEWS! The Anti-SLAPP bill passed 76-0 in the Ohio House. Next, the Senate needs to concur with the amendments, which could happen as early as today. This is a bright spot in a very busy and chaotic #LameDuck. 🦆 www.cleveland.com/opinion/2024...

Reading a friend's book this afternoon and I am reading it with her voice narrating it in my head which is delightful. Highly recommend this one, even if you don't know Myrna well enough to have her voice in your head. www.press.jhu.edu/books/title/...

In a pro se writ case without oral argument, the Ohio Supreme Court, 4-3, overruled a 25-year-old decision on standing in civil cases. Two of the three dissenters will no longer be on the court in January. #AppellateSky Links to docket and opinion at article at the link card.

A Judge gave me a rare and lovely compliment today, and then I left my file in his courtroom like an idiot and had to sneak in to get it disrupting a proceeding so I think we're back to square one.

Food insecurity should not happen in the wealthiest country in the world, but it’s a sad reality. Consider the STL Foodbank on this Giving Tuesday. (Instead of legal fees, I have my friends’ teen drivers who need a ticket amended make a food bank donation.) secure.stlfoodbank.org/site/Donatio...
