In this episode, Brian N. Larson, Associate Professor of Law at Texas A&M University School of Law, discusses his article "Endogenous and Dangerous," which will be published in the Nevada Law Journal. Larson begins by observing that judicial opinions often include endogenous citations, or citations that don't appear in the briefing of either party. He presents the results of an empirical study of copyright fair use cases designed to identify when and why judges used endogenous citations. And he argues that courts should allow parties to brief endogenous citations used to support substantive conclusions. Larson is on Twitter at @Rhetoricked.
