Kendall also brings to Clinton's defense a criminal-law background that includes the only type of cases whose consequences can make impeachment seem trivial: death-penalty appeals. He made that his specialty during the 1970s as an N.A.A.C.P. lawyer. To build a relationship with his condemned clients, he would play chess with them by postcard, with as many as nine miniature boards of partly played games cluttering his cramped office at any given time. And Kendall once had to be restrained from throwing a punch at a burly warden who refused to allow his doomed client John Spenkelink...
...White House. And Cockell was within earshot of the conversation between Clinton and lawyer Robert Bennett during their January limo ride back from the Paula Jones deposition. But Starr's spokesman, Charles Bakaly, rejected White House assertions that the independent counsel wants to intrude on a lawyer-client moment, using Cockell as the back door.

Kellogg Graduate School of Management at Northwestern University in Evanston, Ill., to study business topics like strategic planning, delivering client value and implementing corporate change. Klotsche's firm is investing $4 million to $5 million for all the Baker & McKenzie attorneys to take two-week executive-education management courses at Northwestern. The program, which began in May, will take about three years to complete. "In my wildest dreams, I never thought...
...motivations, many of the new wave of professional students are taking on subjects, mostly in information technology and business management, that didn't even exist two or three years ago. The innovative topics include Internet marketing, electronic-commerce marketing, multimedia and design, computer-network management, global-marketplace strategies, client service and retention, and managing a business in the face of new competitors. "Some of the courses we offer are so specific and narrowly focused that they would not really be applicable toward a degree," says Richard Vigilante, director of the Information Technologies Institute, part of New York University's School...
