Supreme Court Rejects Certified Question From 5th Circuit in Kidnap Case
Under federal law dating back to 1802, one way for a case to wind up before the Supreme Court is for a federal appeals court to certify a question to the justices. It has never been a frequently traveled path to the high court, but it has been allowed from time to time -- though not since 1981. On Monday the justices rejected such a request by the 5th Circuit to resolve a statute-of-limitations issue that could affect prosecution of long-ago civil rights cases in the South.

Justices to Take Up Lawyer Ethics, Errors
How lawyers do their jobs -- from the type of advice they give clients to the calculation of fees -- moves to the fore in the new U.S. Supreme Court term in six cases that could dramatically alter the day-to-day practice of law. The justices in recent terms typically have taken two or three cases, or even none, involving lawyering. The upswing may reflect a larger movement toward greater scrutiny of the legal profession, particularly in the wake of corporate and government scandals involving lawyers.
