Hamilton County, Ohio, was as likely as anywhere to see the meddling and intimidation that some feared Trump and his allies would bring on Election Day. But election workers there were ready, and in the end, they could breath a sigh of relief. news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law…

For those keeping tabs on those involved in the Cuyahoga County corruption scandal, Jimmy Dimora just asked a federal judge to end his supervised release early. He's served it since Biden commuted the rest of his prison sentence. bloomberglaw.com/public/docu…

Dimora, in a handwritten filing, said his wife and other family members now live in Naples, Florida and that he wishes to live with them instead of an apartment in downtown Cleveland. "After all that has transpired, I no longer wish to live in the Northern District of Ohio."

For those keeping tabs, the Sixth Circuit has a new chief judge, Raymond M. Kethledge, as of today. The previous chief judge, Jeffrey S. Sutton took senior status.

This is an incredibly misleading graphic. Nobody representing @DispatchAlerts wrote this. This is from an op-ed the paper published from @kristinaroegner.
Ohioans remember the damage done under @amyactonoh. Ohio deserves a governor who answers to the people and puts them first.

Why are you coughing?
Cleveland? No — Cleveland! We heard a certain someone is dropping a song about The Land. *cough cough* Taylor Swift *cough cough* So naturally, we have one question: What Cleveland lyrics do you think made the cut? Drop your best guesses below. #thelandforlife #TaylorSwift

Well, this is one way to try to wiggle out of trouble when getting caught using AI to write a court filing. From an attorney-discipline complaint filed in Ohio.

As a judge, it's bad to use racist language, sexually harass staff members, or preside in cases when you have a conflict. An Ohio judge in my small hometown did all three. He's sidelined for two years, @eheisig reports. news.bloomberglaw.com/litiga…

Hi there, politicians and the like. Here's your periodic reminder that many reporters won't use your statements on, say, a court ruling if you send it a day or days after it was issued. That's generally not how the news cycle works in 2026. Thank you.

The ceremonial “withdrawing of counsel” by @BenFlowersOH following his confirmation to the 6th Circuit is in progress.

Just in case you didn't think the judge meant to issue a gag order, they used an exclamation point.

A federal judge who issued a temporary restraining order allowing certain out-of-state hemp product companies to sell in Ohio and ignore a ban issued his preliminary injunction this morning allowing such conduct to take place even longer. bloomberglaw.com/public/docu…
