…is up, with Brooks Schuelke once again doing the hard work of putting it together.

You haven’t seen too much in this space lately because the practice of law always trumps blogging.

But these items jumped out at me and deserve a read:

The truth about Texas tort “reform” (TortDeform);

Last week Ted Frank took to task Marc Rodwin, the author of a study that debunks the idea of a crisis in medical malpractice premiums. Rodwin responded; And then Frank fired back.

Dear Diary, Ruthie had put up Blawg Review #160. Please check it out;

Brooks Schuelke puts up Personal Injury Law Round-Up #63;

The Daily News says to dump dangerous doctors and screen the disproportionate share of doctors that get sued so often (PopTort);

Some really interesting legal drafting. I mean the kind you’ve never seen before (Quad Cities);

And last: Did you know I was a healthcare blog? Seems I missed the HealthCare100 by thismuch.

Uber-blogger Scott Greenfield, of Simple Justice fame, has an op-ed in today’s Newsday on the scandal over attorneys representing “baby governments” such as school districts, out on Long Island.

Dr. Wes rounds up the best of the med blogs with a very stylish Grand Rounds;

Blawg Review # 154 is up at David Harlow‘s HealthBlawg, with a theme of World Health Day;

Scott Greenfield ponders if an ethical violation occurred with Rusty Hardin, regarding the Roger Clemens steroid scandal and his breaking the attorney-client privilege; and

Chinese government goons attack a U.S. citizen on U.S. soil for expressing her First Amendment rights (Legal Satyricon)

Some links for the weekend:

Brooks Schuelke with this week’s Personal Injury Round-Up #56. Since he called my Tuesday post the “biggest April Fool’s Day joke in the history of the blogosphere,” I think he deserves a link. That, and he always digs out stories that I miss.

And Blawg Review #153 this week was turned into Blarrgh Review! by George Wallace at Declarations and Exclusions with a pirate theme. That’s a tough act to follow, which he then proceeded to do with an appendix published on April Fool’s Day at his other blog, a fool in the forest.

It’s a good thing I won’t be doing another one of these until December. I need a long time to think.
