  • Judicial Genealogy (And Mythology) of John Roberts: Clerkships from Gray to Brandeis to Friendly to Roberts
    The Judicial Genealogy (and Mythology) of John Roberts: Clerkships from Gray to Brandeis to Friendly to Roberts BRAD SNYDER* During his Supreme Court nomination hearings, John Roberts idealized and mythologized the first judge he clerkedfor, Second Circuit Judge Henry Friendly, as the sophisticated judge-as-umpire. Thus far on the Court, Roberts has found it difficult to live up to his Friendly ideal, particularlyin several high-profile cases. This Article addresses the influence of Friendly on Roberts and judges on law clerks by examining the roots of Roberts's distinguishedyet unrecognized lineage of former clerks: Louis Brandeis 's clerkship with Horace Gray, Friendly's clerkship with Brandeis, and Roberts's clerkships with Friendly and Rehnquist. Labeling this lineage a judicial genealogy, this Article reorients clerkship scholarship away from clerks' influences on judges to judges' influences on clerks. It also shows how Brandeis, Friendly, and Roberts were influenced by their clerkship experiences and how they idealized their judges. By laying the clerkship experiences and career paths of Brandeis, Friendly, and Roberts side-by- side in detailed primary source accounts, this Article argues that judicial influence on clerks is more professional than ideological and that the idealization ofjudges and emergence of clerks hips as must-have credentials contribute to a culture ofjudicial supremacy. * Assistant Professor, University of Wisconsin Law School.

THE FIRST AMENDMENT UNDER ATTACK: A DEFENSE OF THE PEOPLE'S RIGHT TO KNOW* Elmer W. Lower** It was just after two in the morning in East New York, a tough part of Brooklyn. Leon Negri, sixty-one-year-old watchman, and his wife had attended a family party and stood waiting on the corner for a homeward-bound bus. As they waited, a group of youths were making a clamor half a block away. One of the youths left the group, walked the half block, and grabbed for Flora Negri's purse. At that moment, the bus pulled up, and as Flora's husband pounded on the door for help, the youth pulled out a 22-caliber revolver and shot him in the back. The husband collapsed on the bus floor, dead. The youth fled. All this was duly reported by the New York news media.' The next day a seventeen-year-old boy was booked on a charge of killing Mr.

  • A TALE of TWO HANDS: One Clapping; One Not
    A TALE OF TWO HANDS: One Clapping; One Not Burt Neuborne* My thanks to the editors of the Arizona State Law Journal for organizing this symposium celebrating the 100th anniversary of Judge Learned Hand’s brilliant and courageous, if unsuccessful, effort in Masses Publishing Co. v. Patten1 to slow down the repressive train that was running amok over Americans who vigorously spoke out against America’s entry into World War I. While many have chronicled the major Supreme Court cases from Schenck to Gitlow failing to protect free speech during and after World War I,2 they usually don’t go beneath the surface of the Supreme Court to plumb the massive wave of repression that swept the nation in the summer and fall of 1917, fanned by jingoism, fear of immigrants, war fever, fear of communism, and President Woodrow Wilson’s streak of fanaticism.3 Convinced that he was doing God’s work in committing the nation to a war to make the world safe for democracy, Wilson, a baffling figure who was an appalling racist, an economic reformer, an idealistic internationalist, and the first President to appoint a Jew to the Supreme Court,4 had no qualms about * Norman Dorsen Professor in Civil Liberties, New York University School of Law.

  • Securities and Financial Regulation in the Second Circuit
    SECURITIES AND FINANCIAL REGULATION IN THE SECOND CIRCUIT by Karen Patton Seymour* INTRODUCTION The Second Circuit has long been the country’s preeminent court in the field of securities and financial regulation.1 Since the passage of the Securities Act of 1933 (“the Securities Act”) and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“the Exchange Act”), the Second Circuit has been the leading interpreter of U.S. securities laws and arguably the most influential court in the area of securities regulation in the world. From 1961 to 1978, the Second Circuit produced nearly five times as many securities law opinions as the average federal appellate court; the Second Circuit alone was responsible for one-third of all securities opinions issued by appellate courts.2 Particularly, the Second Circuit handed down up to 70 percent of the opinions that appear in securities law casebooks covering the same period.3 It is little wonder, then, that the Supreme Court frequently has called the Second Circuit the “Mother Court” in the area of securities.4 The Second Circuit’s influence in the realm of securities goes beyond pure numbers. The court’s membership has included several celebrated judges who have been particularly influential in the field of securities regulation, among them Learned Hand and Henry Friendly. According to some, Judge Friendly did more to influence the law of securities regulation * B.A./B.S., Southern Methodist University, 1983; J.D., The University of Texas School of Law, 1986; L.L.M., University Of London, 1987; Partner, Sullivan & Cromwell LLP; Assistant U.S. Attorney, U.S.

  • ROSS, JOSEPH A., Ph.D. the Nuremberg Paradox: How the Trial of the Nazis Challenged American Support of International Human Rights Law
    ROSS, JOSEPH A., Ph.D. The Nuremberg Paradox: How the Trial of the Nazis Challenged American Support of International Human Rights Law. (2018) Directed by Dr. Mark E. Elliott. 376 pp. This dissertation is an intellectual and legal history that traces the evolution of human rights concepts by focusing on American participants who were at the center of the Nuremberg Trial—Robert Jackson, Francis Biddle, and John Parker. It addresses questions such as: What impact did the Nuremberg Trial have on international human rights law in the postwar period? How did Jackson, Biddle, and Parker understand human rights, national sovereignty, international law, and international engagement before the Trial? Did their views change as a result of their Nuremberg experiences? What challenges, if any, did they face in upholding human rights when they returned home? The answers to these questions reveal a key paradox surrounding Nuremberg. A paradox seems to contradict generally received opinion yet is still true, which is an apt description of the Nuremberg Trial. It was a pivotal moment in the development of international human rights law, and of the U.S. commitment to internationalism. One way of measuring Nuremberg’s importance is through the impact it had on Jackson, Biddle, and Parker’s thinking after the Trial ended. These men had already endorsed the idea of “crimes against humanity” and the need for international trials before they received their appointments, which is part of the reason why they were chosen. At Nuremberg, they confronted atrocities of such an extreme nature that they devoted themselves to the Trial’s great purpose: that “never again” would the world allow this to happen.
