Almost a year ago, the public first learned that David R. Jones, a now former federal judge, was in a secret, live-in romantic relationship with a partner at a bankruptcy firm that had lots of business in Jones' Houston court.

Since then, Jones has stepped down from the bench, but the dust has definitely not settled. The federal bankruptcy monitor is trying to claw back millions in attorneys' fees that the firm, Jackson Walker, collected in cases overseen by Jones. And Jones himself is in more hot water after he sat down for an off-the-record interview with Jackson Walker—without approval from the judge investigating the whole matter.

To untangle this messy situation, Bloomberg Law reporter James Nani joins our podcast, On The Merits, and talks about why Jones says he's done nothing wrong and whether Jackson Walker's reputation can come out of this intact.
