The US Chamber of Commerce and the plaintiff’s bar (the AAJ) battle back and forth, and keep track of each other’s activities and meetings. Those of us of a certain age might think back to Mad magazine and Spy v. Spy cartoons. In any event, the Chamber’s ILR arm put up a July 24, 2015 blog post to follow up on a Politico story about the AAJ’s annual meeting, and highlights that someone provided a private plane flight to the meeting for US Senator Harry Reid.
The big picture point? The litigation industry continues to thrive and grow.
