Advisory Opinions

An Inconsequential Term?


Listen Later

Sarah Isgur, David French, and Kannon Shanmugam again reunite for the annual Paul, Weiss summer associate live recording. The three discuss Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson’s mysterious jurisprudence, political pressure on the Supreme Court bench, and firmly bound, braggadocious briefs.Plus: billable hours, a (not) blockbuster term, and Sarah’s insecurity over Texas’ quaint size.


The Agenda:
—The Biter and Aqua Girl
Trump v. Casa, injunctions, and class actions
—Pushback on Justice Jackson as the #Resistance justice (and how to write an email)
—Splitting the baby on paper vs. digital cert petitions
—Guess where Kannon puts his Supreme Court quill pens
—It wasn’t a blockbuster term
—Circuit court crash course
Don’t mess with Texas
—My big fat 9th Circuit Court
—Free speech or parental rights? United States v. Skrmetti and Mahmoud v. Taylor
