"For me, it's always been taking the facts of the case and applying them to the law."

Said former Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Louis Butler , testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee yesterday, in a hearing on his nomination to the federal district court here in the Western District of Wisconsin. He is, in what has become typical confirmation hearing ritual, asserting his faithfulness to the law and attempting to quell charges of judicial activism. But isn't that quote interesting?...

Non-Sequiturs: 10.28.09

* Are bankers even more narcissistic than lawyers? Consider the evidence. [ Dealbreaker ] * No, Justice Scalia did not say he would have dissented in Brown v. Board of Education. [ Balkinization ] * Of course, "[t]he misrepresentation of Scalia's remarks went viral almost instantly, which is the way things go these days."

Clarence Thomas To Other Supreme Court Justices: "Hush!"

Clarence Thomas, the justice long known as the silent member of the Supreme Court, criticized his colleagues for badgering attorneys rather than letting them speak during oral arguments . The conservative Republican jurist — who hasn't asked a lawyer a question during arguments in nearly four years — said he and the other eight justices virtually always know where they stand on a case by...

Black Firefighter Sues New Haven

In late June, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of white New Haven firefighters and their claims of racial discrimination. The SCOTUS decision in Ricci v. DeStefano overturned an earlier decision by then-2nd Circuit Judge Sonia Sotomayor. Given the SCOTUS decision, I should have seen the lawsuit by a black New Haven firefighter coming. It's such an obvious reaction to SCOTUS that I'm surprised it took...

Mayor Daley vs Freedom of Speech (But That Bubble Zone May Yet Be Burst)

"In a political about-face" ( as the Chicago Sun-Times described it ), Mayor Richard Daley has decided to go ahead and sign "bubble zone" legislation which abortionists managed to force through the Chicago City Council. Like other such schemes, the law usurps those freedoms of speech and assembly which American courts once recognized as constitutional. This one is particularly...

Simply Sonia: Sotomayor’s Colleagues Pick Docket Virtually Tailored To Force Her To Choice Sides

Here is this week’s column from Roll Call. It explores the interesting selection of cases this term for the Supreme Court.

Christian Is Not a Religion (and Jews Have a Cross to Bear)

October 9, 2009 Posted by Jay Livingston In the flap over Sonia Sotomayor’s gender and ethnicity, when the right went nuts over her “wise Latina”comment, I noted ( here ) the invisibility of dominant characteristics. White male is the default setting. White is not a race, male is not a gender. Only blacks, Hispanics, and others have race. Only women and gays have gend er. I should...

Better to keep one's mouth shut and be thought a fool than to open it and remove all doubt

This week marks the opening of another Supreme Court Term, and Court-watchers have been eager to see how new Justice Sonia Sotomayor settles into her role. I've read a few of the early transcripts, and have noticed (as have others here and here ; links via How Appealing ) that Justice Sotomayor had no problem asking plenty of questions during the arguments. That's fine and all, and I'm glad she's willing...

The WaPo Is Helpful

In case you forgot that Justice Sonia Sotomayor was a fiery Latina, staff writer Robert Barnes is here to help : Justice Sonia Sotomayor displayed no reticence on the first day of her first term on the court; in the two cases on the docket, she asked as many questions and made as many comments as Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. Ooh, uppity! I mean doesn't know her place! No, wait, I mean fiery! It's...

High Court's NEW TERM: Supreme Court Begins Term With New Justice

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court began its new term Monday with Justice Sonia Sotomayor on the bench as the court tried to hash out how long a suspect's request for a lawyer should be considered valid by police and the courts. The high court, listening to its first arguments of the session, seemed skeptical of defense lawyers' arguments that police should be banned from talking to a suspect without...

U.S. Market for Multicultural Women: How African-American, Latina and Asian-American Women Are Driving Change in the American Consumer Economy, The, 2nd Edition - aarkstore

Many Americans marveled in 2009 as an African-American woman assumed the duties of First Lady and a Latina donned the robes of a Supreme Court Justice. Yet, historians likely will find that Michelle Obama and Sonia Sotomayor were not only icons for multicultural women of their own generation in the first decade of the 21st century, but also were precursors of an emerging wave of increasingly empowered...
