And a light goes out - Overlawyered closes its doors

One of my regular reads has decided that 21 years is enough. From Walter's website:

A good run: Overlawyered, 1999-2020
I published the first Overlawyered post on July 1, 1999, and I expect this post on May 31, 2020 will be the last.

As someone in the entertainment world once put it, “Leave before they want you to leave.” I appreciate the outpouring of good wishes in recent days.

My gratitude to all those who have made it possible, including the Cato Institute, which has published the site for the past 10 years. And especially to the readers.

A long and wonderful run - Good luck and God Speed Walter!
