I am happy to report a small victory in Circuit Court in Indiana. In the course of gathering information on some reportedly anti-Israel professors at Indiana University, I encountered an anachronistic road block:

Apparently under old interpretations of the Indiana Public Records Act, a request for correspondence (such as an email) must identify both sender and recipient. In my view, such a requirement is inappropriate for the modern digital age; nowadays computers have no problem searching through email databases using a single party as a search parameter.

It seems the judge agreed with my reasoning and ordered Indiana University to produce correspondence even if only one party was identified.

On its face, the legal announcement was a standard dispatch from the ongoing cleanup of the coronavirus pandemic, the $6 trillion slush fund created by Congress and Republican President Donald Trump, and the nearly $800 billion Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) that was sloppily disbursed.

I just got back from Tampa, Florida where the annual conference of the American Anthropological Association took place. We were exhibiting at the conference on behalf of an Israeli organization. Some of these organizations have talked about boycotting Israel and it's worth showing them that we will not be deterred. Of course, if they had boycotted us, a lawsuit would have swiftly followed.

Thanks to my Norwegian friends from Med Israel for fred (MIFF) for helping out with this. It was great to have some Viking vibes at the booth. We got a few dirty looks but none of the keffiyah-wearing crowd messed with us.

Victory in a "Bake the Cake" Case

So I am happy to report a win in a matter brought against a small Jewish-owned garment business.

My client had declined to manufacture a run of shirts to be embroidered with anti-Israel messages along the lines of "Free Palestine." (Yes, we all know what is meant by "Free Palestine")

In response, the jilted customer filed a formal discrimination claim against my client. Of course, lawyers reading this will know that this type of issue has been coming up lately in the context of cakes for same-sex weddings.

Based on applicable law and precedent, the charges against my client were dismissed. And who knows, maybe I will get some pro-Israel t-shirts out of this.

Thanks to The Lawfare Project for the referral.

I have been very busy the last couple years.

The real story behind a venerable D.C. organization's legal settlement tells us a lot about the current state of political warfare.
