Even lawyers in the civil rape case against Trump can’t learn jurors’ names

29/07/2025despair

We learned last month that Donald Trump is getting a rare anonymous jury at his upcoming civil trial in the rape and defamation lawsuit brought against him by writer E. Jean Carroll. But the former president’s aggressive behavior has continued such that even the lawyers can’t learn those jurors’ names.

It was remarkable enough when Judge Lewis Kaplan decided to treat the impending civil jury like one in a terrorism or organized crime case. In doing so, Kaplan recounted Trump’s whipping up of Jan. 6 rioters and his urging of supporters to “take our country back” in the face of

DOJ Fails Again in a No-Poach Prosecution

26/07/2025despair

A Ruling and Order issued on April 28, 2023 by the US District Court for the District of Connecticut in United States v. Patel, et al. ran the government’s losing streak to four failed trials seeking to criminally prosecute alleged wage-fixing and no-poach agreements.

To review, in 2016 the Department of Justice (“DOJ”) and the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) issued Antitrust Guidance for Human Resources Professionals that warned of potential criminal prosecutions for so-called “naked” no-poach agreements, ie , agreements among competing businesses to restrict hiring or compensation of employees, untethered to any legitimate collaborative relationship.

25/07/2025despair

Madawaska First Nation has gone ahead and cut out the New Brunswick government from taxes collected on tobacco and cannabis sold on-reserve.

In response to the province canceling a series of tax revenue-sharing agreements it held with Wolastoqey First Nations, Madawaska has enacted its own cannabis and tobacco licensing act, allowing the band government to set a tax rate for those products and collect the revenues, says Chief Patricia Bernard.
