Amarica's Constitution

Geduldigging Your Grave at Oral Argument - Special Guest Vikram D. Amar


Listen Later

The Supreme Court’s term is long since complete, but we turn back the clock and take a deep dive into one of the major cases of the term, United States v. Skrmetti.  This case addressed questions of gender dysphoria treatment and transgender rights, but fundamentally, it was a case about the law of equality, say the brothers Amar.  Yes, Vik Amar is back as a guest, and our two experts go back and listen to the oral argument and react to the Justices and the advocates as they present.  It turns out that this is an excellent case for learning about how the law attempts to implement the equality promises of the Constitution, and you will hear the Justices engage in this action, or inaction.  Our experts add more than their take on the arguments - they have theories that go beyond anything said in Court that day or written in the opinions that followed.  This is part one of a multi-part summer treat from Amarica’s Constitution.  CLE credit is available for lawyers and judges from podcast.njsba.com.
