About
The Common Scold



The Common Scold is named after a cause of action that originated in Pilgrim days, when meddlesome, argumentative, opinionated women who displeased the Puritan elders were punished by a brisk dunk in the local pond. Believe it or not, the tort lasted until 1972, when State v. Palendrano, 120 N.J. Super. 336, 293 A.2d 747 (N.J.Super.L., Jul 13, 1972) pretty much put it to rest. But the thought of those feisty women, not afraid of a little cold water, has always cheered me up and inspired me. I first used the moniker as the name of my humor column at the University of San Francisco School of Law many moons ago, and revive it now for this blawg!

LEGALTECH WEST COAST - SHOW FLOOR

Legaltechsigngood_2LegalTech West Coast 2008 was a two-day whirlwind of exhibits, demos, programs, parties, and networking.

I'm still on the road, but here's some shots of the Exhibit Hall, by LTN's photo editor, Russ Curtis (www.russcurtis.com).

Thanks to all the vendors, panelists, and attendees who made LTWC 2008 a wonderful experience

Enjoy!
