Absolutely delighted today to see Rebecca Roiphe's kind review of my and Nora's piece on Auto Clubs in Jotwell! It's such a thoughtful and generous engagement with the article -- I'm thrilled, and deeply grateful. legalpro.jotwell.com/cars-bars-and-…..

Wait how did *this* not become the most mocked Aaron Sorkin Newsroom line?

Beyond thrilled to share that my newest article, "The Prison Discovery Crisis," will be published in the The Yale Law Journal! SSRN post will follow in a few weeks, but if anyone would like to read now, reach out. Still floored, and delighted to work again with YLJ's amazing editors.

What is the purpose of evidence law? My answer has now been published in the Nᴏᴛʀᴇ Dᴀᴍᴇ L. Rᴇᴠ. (Notre Dame Law Review)! And I’m particularly excited to share the issue with one of my closest mentors and friends, Sean B. Seymore!

Pleased to share my article "Financial Conflicts of Interest and Academic Economists in Law and Policymaking," which explores the history of U.S. conflict of interest laws, prof. ethics codes, and economists in gov't. Thanks to the editors at Arizona State Law Journal! arizonastatelawjournal.org/2024/08/22/fin…

My and Nora Engstrom's Feature, "Auto Clubs and the Lost Origins of the Access-to-Justice Crisis," is now officially out in The Yale Law Journal! So excited to share this long-forgotten, important story. You can read it here: yalelawjournal.org/feature/auto-c…

Highly recommend. An important story that explores how--once upon a time--people overcame the access-to-justice gap by relying on lawyers made available through their auto club memberships, in cases ranging from car accidents to even criminal violations.
