  1. And the Dogtrainer lives down to its rep with a really vapid story about the convictions. I won’t miss Yagman, he was an example of the kind of plaintiffs attorney that gives the rest of us a bad name.

  6. Geeze, Patterico, and you didn’t have anything to say about the big wet, sloppy kiss that the “objective” LA Times gave Yagman in the first paragraph?

  7. Ooch! I didn’t have access to news of the civilized world when this went down. Thanks for the update!

  8. One of the unsecured creditors that Yagman tried to screw out of a substantial debt was none other than Ramsey Clark, a former law partner of his. That must be some back story.

  9. Doc,

    I will have a post on today’s article, which is different from the one they ran last night. I didn’t want to spend a lot of time on an article that I knew would be a first draft.
