Women's groups want magistrate reform
Two Tennessee women's groups say it's time to rein in judicial magistrates after learning that dozens of domestic violence cases were thrown out minutes after police made arrests. In one case, a Dickson magistrate threw out more than half the domestic violence arrests he reviewed. The Tennessee Women's Political Caucus and the Tennessee Coalition for Domestic Violence have vowed reform, and will press for changes such as shorter terms of service and easier removal procedures for magistrates, more education for the public, and more open hearings.

New resource for would-be public interest lawyers
A new online publication is aimed at filling a void in existing law school rankings by tailoring its information to would-be public interest lawyers. The Equal Justice Works Guide to Law Schools has information on the percentage of graduates in public service jobs, public interest field placements and clinics, and pro bono opportunities. The publication also has financial information, including tuition, scholarships and average student debt. The guide doesn't rank law schools, but it does allow users to do side-by-side comparisons of selected schools.

ABA reorganizes top staff
The resignation this week of Henry "Hank" White Jr., the American Bar Association's executive director, is part of a reorganization set in motion by the group's new president, Carolyn Lamm. White will be replaced temporarily by ABA general counsel R. Thomas Howell Jr. Other changes include the departure of chief financial officer Kenneth Widelka after just one year and changes in duties for membership, marketing and media relations staff. Lamm said the purpose of the changes is to reduce the number of staff reporting to the executive director by half.
