The FBI in Jackson has been searching the Scruggs Law Firm on The Square since 10:30 this morning for a specific document that is "ancillary" to Hurricane Katrina insurance litigation, attorney Joey Langston said this afternoon.
The FBI confirmed this morning that a search warrant had been executed at the law firm headed by high-profile attorney Richard "Dickie" Scruggs, who successfully sued Big Tobacco and has represented hundreds of policyholders suing insurance companies over Katrina damage.

Ah ha...
bump
I can remember Trent saying “I won;t bite the hand that feeds us” or something close in the Katrina Aftermath....
HA!
Mississippi ping!
“Dickie” Scruggs investigated???
How great THAT would be!
I love it when a plan comes together. : )
Wonder how nice a cell he’ll get...
I hope Earl Flatt is not involved.
Mr. Lott, you did not lead, you did not follow. You just got in the way. Good riddance.
“I hope Earl Flatt is not involved.”
Lol! Earl Flat and Lester Scruggs?
He dang sure ain’t Dickie Betts...unless he plays with The Allman Brothers.
The perfect RINO.
Exactly what I meant about getting in the way.
My 2 cents:
Considering the poster of this thread I take deep
thought in the input and outcome of this
Scruggs,Lott, Katrina scenario.
I really don’t think gayism plays apart.
The lobby thing “maybe” but not Trent being gay.
Also I predict Chip to take Trent’s place
and Charlie Ross for Chip’s plays.
Book mark for future ref.
I’ve never been fond of the new “big tent, compassionate republican” mantra put forth by the professional political class.
I thik you’re more right tha not. :)
My “n” key keeps stickin’. :)
My x does that, could be the 6 lady bugs down in there.
I tend to agree with you now.
I think you are right about Chip, too.
Heck...he won't have to campaign so often, so it will be easier on his family.
"Book mark for future ref."
I suspect we'll be seeing your post again. ;o)
HA! for the second time on this thread!
It would be so in-your-face to appoint Judge Pickering to finish Lott’s term!
I think that would be GREAT!
Thanks for the link to your blog.
I really like it.
Sheesh, I’m just glad we got our new coach hired BEFORE Dickie got busted. Gosh knows how many millions came from him. Really.
Last time around, fans were able to figure out which coaches were being talked to by keeping an eye on flight plans filed for Scruggs’s jet. This time he apparently jacked the trackers around by filing and cancelling flight plans to various and sundry places where coaching candidates were. Pretty crafty of him.
MM (in TX)
You and me, both! ;o)
Yep.
I've always considered him to be "tricky".
Are you sayin’ your keyboard is bugged??????????
I remember reading in the WSJ way back when the man with the razor cut pomaded hair was looking for to put some kind legal squeeze on the insurance company (SF?)because the vacation house he lost in Katrina was the result of highwater and the loss was not covered.
Dickie Betts,Duane Allman , Greg Allman and I forget the drummers name,were the best of the best in mucical rock and roll.
Scruggs is the brother-in-law of U.S. Senate Minority Whip Trent Lott. Lott, a Republican, announced Monday that he will leave office early to pursue other opportunities. Scruggs represented Lott in a lawsuit he settled with State Farm earlier this year over Katrina damage.
However, speculation that the resignation was related to the Scruggs law office search is just that.
The two events were mere coincidence, Lott's office said Tuesday.

I would rather see Charles "The Judge" Pickering rather than Chip.
I know that the apple doesn't fall far, and all that...but the name doesn't bring maturity. (You shoulda asked my daddy when he was still living...he'd have sure told you that!)
Jamoe Johanson?
Isn’t Dickie instrumental in bringing the Presidential debate to Oxford? I know it’s not relevant to the article but it’s add to see his name assiociated with two big issues at the same time.
Unless I missed something recent, Betts hasn’t been with the Allmans for a few years now. He was replaced by Derek Trucks.
They have two drummers, and Jamoe is one of the original members. I think that they were first called the Allman Joys.
The other drummer’s last name is Trucks. He is the uncle of the Derek Trucks, who replaced Betts in the band.
Butch Trucks
Eww! Do you hear crunching when you hit the X?
“The two events were mere coincidence.”
In politics, there is no such thing as coincidence!
The ABB is the best band ever!
I may listen to “In Memory of Elizabeth Reed” right now.

I’m torn between “Jessica” and “Hot ‘lanta.”
That's what I said would be so in your face, Wiley. ;o)
I'd love to see the judge appointed, and then Chip run to replace him.
Duhh! Sorry...went right over my head!
