Today, Walter Olson was named as a senior fellow to the Cato Institute. Olson was someone who was key in pushing national attention to the Dickie Scruggs case. He had been running Overlawyered and Point of Law, two fantastic resources for those interested in law and politics. While I am sure he will miss his time at the Manhattan Institute, where he's been for 25 years, Cato is a huge opportunity for him.

From the folks at YallPolitics . . . Walter, we wish you well.
