The 1st wave of amicus briefs in SCOTUS’s upcoming “independent state legislature theory” case is incoming—if you read no other brief, read the Conference of Chief Justices'. This is a rare and significant brief that should send a strong caution to the Justices🧵👇 Brennan Center
Thank you, to all on the Colorado Attorney General’s team for your dedication to public service, equal rights, and maintaining professionalism during the weirdest #SCOTUS hypotheticals and questions I’ve ever heard. Ever.
If #lawtwitter has an institutional memory, this will be one of its favorites from the pandemic period. Never gets old. Thanks Judge Roy Ferguson!
TY Lady Justice: Women of the Court for the impressive substantive conversation re: National Center for State Courts’ survey on public trust & confidence in courts. From public knowledge of state v. federal courts to behavioral health/problem-solving court progress. And state-specific innovations👏
Judge Castel penned a very thoughtful opinion & sanctions order. He earlier conducted an excellent examination @ the sanctions hearing. Clean transcript! Judge Castel’s excellent record (transcript & this opinion/order) is a fine model for other jurists storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
Phrases used often enough become canned language. TY National Center for State Courts. #A2J means you have "timely, affordable access to legal help you need." Everyone deserves this. Sometimes this means you don't need a lawyer, a trip to the courthouse, or a big trial set a year + from now.
Yes! Please read. “Demographically representative courts not only can improve user engagement but also may help increase public confidence in the court and its ability to render fair outcomes…” #judges, #jurors, #courtstaff, #attorneys #Equity Pew States
My daughter and I were talking to General Prelogar after she spoke at Colorado Women's Bar Association. Top level lawyering + so kind.
