Federal Blogger Disappears

This week, the New Yorker outed "Article III Groupie," the blogger behind a popular site about the federal judiciary called "Underneath Their Robes." The magazine's Jeffrey Toobin wrote that the provocative blogger, who prefers to be called A3G, "writes like a boozy débutante, dishing about the wardrobes, work habits, and idiosyncrasies of the 'superhotties of the federal judiciary' and 'Bodacious Babes of the Bench.' " And he revealed that A3G is actually a man--and even more surprising, a federal employee: David Lat, a Newark, N.J.-based assistant U.S. attorney. Having learned that, you doubtless won't be surprised to hear that "Underneath Their Robes" has suddenly disappeared.
