"The Seventh Circuit Bar Association has seen its share of lively conversations at its meetings over the years, says Chicago lawyer and member Jeffrey E. Stone. But federal Judge Joan Lefkow, known for her softspoken grace, never expected that a discussion she launched at the meeting in Indianapolis on May 19 would incite a passionate debate that reverberated in the national news and blogosphere."

She goes on to explore the topic of that discussion -- appropriate courtroom attire -- and to tell us what judges and ISBA members have to say about it. Learn what to keep and what to cull in your closet.
