Today's video story: Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff has taken her battle to survive impeachment to the Supreme Court in a last-ditch attempt to stay in office, a day before the Senate is expected to vote to try her for breaking budget laws.Brazil's Attorney General Eduardo Cardozo, the government's top lawyer, asked the Supreme Court to annul impeachment proceedings on Tuesday, his office said.As the prospect grew of Rousseff's removal and a potential end to 13 years of rule by her leftist Workers Party, anti-impeachment protesters blocked roads and burned tyres in the capital Sao Paulo and other cities early on Tuesday.

FOCUS OF THE DAY: Two-thirds of students who pass the £12,500-plus Bar Professional Training Course fail to secure a pupillage, according to new statistics that once again call into question the credibility of the bar’s training regime. Nearly half of pupillages are awarded to women, but the bar regulator says that since more women than men enrol on the BPTC, ‘more work may be required’ to tackle gender bias. White BPTC candidates may also be more successful in securing pupillage than BME candidates, it adds, though ‘more research is needed’. Full story - The Law Society Gazette
