Great news. I just got back to the office after Passover and find the terrific news that Catherine O'Hagan Wolfe, formerly clerk of court for the New York Appellate Division, First Department, has been named the new clerk of court for the Second Circuit. As anyone who practices appellate law in New York knows, Ms. Wolfe is a great choice. My only question is what is going to happen to the First Department?

First issue on the plate -- on-line filing. It's coming.
