Most days I read recent cases and material on labor and employment law. [...]
Court Upholds Nonrenewal of Teacher Contract Over MySpace Activity
Background
I have frequently written and spoken on legal issues relating to the use in employment decisions of applicant and employee Internet activity such as blogging and using social network sites. However, this is a novel legal issue, and as is usually the case with such issues, legal “experts” like myself have been forced to make [...]

New Options For George’s News Headlines
The sidebar of this blog, under the heading “George’s Micro-Blogs,” contains five categories of news headlines, with links to the original stories. I select these headlines from numerous sources, and typically update them more often than the main posts in this column.

The Very Best of the Very Many Blawgs in My Labor Day Blawg Review
A few people have complained to me about the length of this week’s Blawg Review. “George,” they said, “isn’t Blawg Review supposed to help us cut through the forest of law blawgs and just see the trees? Shouldn’t it be limited to the creme de la creme? Didn’t anyone tell you to [...]
