Rosen runs H&L's SF office

Today's DJ has Jeremy B. Rosen to run San Francisco office of Horvitz & Levy about Jeremy's move to SF to serve as the managing partner of H&L's SF office, effective May 2. [Law360 has Horvitz & Levy Taps Partner in LA to Lead SF Office -- "Horvitz & Levy has been growing its Northern California office since opening in 2018. In February 2019 the firm added Beth Jay, former principal attorney to the chief justice of California and Andrea Russi, who served as a staff attorney to retired Justice Ignazio Ruvolo of the California Court of Appeal."]

Law360 has Big Cos. Shouldn't Cry 'Settlement Pressure' To Justify Appeal about how "the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit rejected assertions by opioid case defendants Walgreens Co. and Walmart Inc. that "intense pressure to settle" warranted immediate relief in the form of interlocutory appeal or a new trial on liability." The author's law review article on this topic is J.B. Heaton, Settlement Pressure, 25 Int'l Rev. L. & Econ. 264 (2005).
