A Message From the Editor

Extensive preparation, including the use of about 100 drones helped motivate an $11 million settlement for the victims of a high-profile police shooting. Also, Philadelphia President Judge Idee Fox is planning to retire at the end of the year, and elite firms are increasingly looking to alter their pay structure to favor productivity over seniority.

Thanks for reading!

– Max Mitchell, Bureau Chief
