Agreed. I am resisting the urge to blog about cases in the office, especially pending ones. For one thing, there is an ethical consideration in terms of one's client's interests. It's also the sort of thing sure to kill your rapport with a judge if it gets back to him or her. In all but the busiest (or most backward) courts, it probably will.
When a case is over, however, I do think a posting that does not identify the case can be very educational and useful. Beldar does this frequently, and I also posted a piece about the results of a week-long trial that I know certain readers enjoyed reading.
