A Message From the Editor

A former partner at a Philadelphia insurance defense firm has sued his former firm, alleging he is owed more than $350K. The loan, according to the lawsuit, was taken out to help finance firm operations and litigation. Reporter Amanda O' Brien has details in our first story today. Also, we have a look at what has led to a recent spate of rulings finding against the Biden administration's new Title IX rules.

Thanks for reading!
