Second Circuit Judge Slams Pro Bono Work
The ACS Blog reports on Second Circuit Chief JudgeDennis Jacobs' controversial comments about pro bonowork made during a Federalist Society meetingin Rochester last week.The blog cites an article from the Daily Record of Rochesterwhich reports Jacobs' assertion that pro bono work is primarilyan "antisocial" and self-serving activity lawyers use todevelop their skills, firms use to recruit and "give solace"to associates, and nonprofits use to further a political agenda.Jacobs is quoted as saying that "No public good is good foreverybody."

CiteGenie - Automatic Bluebook Citations When Using Westlaw
Marc Hershovitz has a new article on LLRX describingCiteGenie, an extension for the Firefox web browser thatautomatically creates Bluebook formatted pinpoint citationswhen copying from Westlaw.Here's an example cited in the article:"To test CiteGenie with state cases,"Georgia" was selected asthe target jurisdiction in the CiteGenie configuration. Selectingtext in 278 Ga. 268, CiteGenie cited it as:'The courts should be extremely hesitant to interfere with the electoral process." Mead v. Sheffield, 278 Ga. 268, 273, 601 S.E.2d 99, 102 (2004).'Changing the CiteGenie configuration to use "Florida" as the targetjurisdiction, CiteGenie cited the same case as:'The courts should be extremely hesitant to interfere with the electoral process.' Mead v. Sheffield, 601 S.E.2d 99, 102 (Ga. 2004).' CiteGenie ...knows...that both the state and regional reportershould be cited, but when citing to a court outside of Georgia,only the regional reporter should be used."Hershovitz explains how to install and configure the software anddescribes the features of this innovative new software. He alsoprovides examples from state and federal cases; unpublishedelectronic cases; neutral and public domain citations; and statutes.Of course, CiteGenie doesn't mean the end of the Bluebook;researchers should have a solid knowledge of citation rules,since no software program is perfect!According to the CiteGenie web site, the company is workingon a version of the software for LexisNexis citations and isdeveloping a version for Internet Explorer 6.x.

The Future of Digital Casebooks

Collins of theFirst Amendment Center in D.C. and David Skover ofSeattle University School of Law.Excerpts from Ambrogi's post as it appeared on LegalBlog Watch (10/8/2008) :"Seattle Post-Intelligencer reporter Andrea James concludedthat traditional publishers are confused about what professorswant and where the industry is heading, she writes, whileteachers want more flexibility in course materials and newways to engage students. Equally clear was that electroniccourse books could be just the ticket."The next step? Conference participants have agreed toform a "loose consortium" to foster the developmentand promotion of electronic course materials.Another report on the workshop appears in the Chronicle of HigherEducation (10/1/2008).
