Hey #AppellateTwitter ! Jess is irreplaceable, but fwiw, our news sensibilities are similar (e.g. we agree demise of "passim" is fascinating). If you'd like to tell me about your practice, circuit splits, the best/worst of Latin legalese, etc, hit me up! [email protected]
A housekeeping note: today is my last with @Law360 . It's been an incredibly fun 11 years. I was never much of a tweeter, but I did enjoy eavesdropping here, especially on #appellatetwitter . Please hit up @JeffOverley with appellate news!
NEW: Federal judge (unsurprisingly) blocks Trump's "most favored nation" rule on drug prices, which would give the U.S. low prices relative to other wealthy countries.
For anyone wondering: Biden's HHS secretary pick, Xavier Becerra, pronounces his name like Javier (HAH-vee-air).
Mississippi's 15-week abortion ban, nixed by an appeals court, is probably the most-watched abortion case that the Supreme Court could soon hear. The justices have now, for the third time since RBG died, rescheduled discussion of whether to hear it. supremecourt.gov/search.aspx…
Rescheduling isn't very common. We don't know why it's happening, but there's a good chance that some justices are interested in hearing the case and are waiting for Barrett's confirmation to see what she thinks.
COVID testing czar Brett Giroir told reporters a few minutes ago "it's just not true" that 10-14 day waits for results are common. I had a test @NorthwellHealth - a hospital system in NYC with its own lab - on July 18 and am still waiting.
Can confirm Reuters report that big opioid trial still expected to start Monday. I’m told AGs and plaintiffs attorneys disagree over size of settlement + how quickly drug companies should have to pay. More talks may occur over weekend. reuters.com/article/usa-opio…
The big opioid-crisis litigation is getting intense >>> My scoop on new effort to disqualify judge as trial approaches: law360.com/health/articles/1…
New: HHS launches appeal of last month's court decision blocking mandatory drug-price disclosure in TV ads
Reporters just got an important update about Oklahoma's opioid trial: The judge recently partied with Snoop Dogg
A weird thing to me about the big ACA case is so many people referring to it as Texas v. Azar, which is not the name. It's called Texas v. U.S. and always has been, y'all are welcome

It's rare that a single product captures everything about our current cultural & economic moment but this $5-per-can Instagram-friendly hemp-infused anti-anxiety sparkling water (seen at a not-fancy NYC grocery store) comes close imo
In its opioid case, Oklahoma for months has been derisively referring to Johnson & Johnson as "a family company," which is actually SC Johnson's tagline, and SC Johnson isn't happy: oscn.net/dockets/GetDocument…
