  • Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals Mourns Passing of Judge Pamela Ann Rymer
    N E W S R E L E A S E September 22, 2011 Contact: David Madden (415) 355-8800 Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals Mourns Passing of Judge Pamela Ann Rymer SAN FRANCISCO – The Hon. Pamela Ann Rymer, a distinguished judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, died Wednesday, September 21, 2011, after a long illness. She was 69. Judge Rymer was diagnosed with cancer in 2009 and had been in failing health in recent months. She passed with friends at her bedside. “Judge Rymer maintained her calendar throughout her illness,” observed Ninth Circuit Chief Judge Alex Kozinski. “Her passion for the law and dedication to the work of the court was inspiring. She will be sorely missed by all of her colleagues.” Judge Rymer served on the federal bench at both the appellate and trial levels for more than 28 years. Nominated by President Reagan, she was appointed a judge of the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California on February 24, 1983. She was elevated to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals by President George H.W. Bush, receiving her commission on May 22, 1989. During her 22 years on the appellate court, Judge Rymer sat on more than 800 merits panels and authored 335 panel opinions. She last heard oral arguments in July and her most recent opinion was filed in August. Her productivity was remarkable and every case received her full attention, colleagues said. "Each case was intrinsically important to her. Finding the right answer for the parties and doing the law correctly were foremost in her mind in every matter.

LaPiana New York Law School, [email protected] Follow this and additional works at: http://digitalcommons.nyls.edu/fac_other_pubs Part of the Legal Education Commons Recommended Citation 24 Law and History Review 690-692 (2006) This Article is brought to you for free and open access by the Faculty Scholarship at DigitalCommons@NYLS. It has been accepted for inclusion in Other Publications by an authorized administrator of DigitalCommons@NYLS. 690 Law and History Review, Fall 2006 simply the result of editorial choices made for the second edition. For example, Employment Division v. Smith, the 1990 case that wrenched the free exercise clause back to its Reynolds v. United States roots, is inexplicably omitted, as is the Religious Freedom Restoration Act and the Religious Land Use and Institutional- ized Persons Act, the federal laws spawned by Smith that have triggered important litigation concerning the scope of Congress's power to enforce the substance of the Fourteenth Amendment. To be sure, the essence of these developments can be gleaned from other entries, but one wonders about the wisdom of the editorial choice inherent in these omissions. It is easy to be a critic, but as Theodore Roosevelt put it, the credit belongs to the man in the arena. Much credit, then, goes to the editors of and contributors to the Oxford Companion to the Supreme Court of the United States. This encyclopedia endures as a valuable reference tool that will continue to be of aid to everyone interested in the work of the Supreme Court.

    LAW AND THE HUNDRED-YEAR LIFE† Anne Alstott* I want to begin with a fact. A fact that stunned me when I heard it, and a fact that motivates this lecture. Here it is: “the majority of children born in rich countries today can expect to live to more than 100.” Put another way, more than 50% of babies born in the United States today will be alive one hundred years from now.1 This isn’t a fringe statistic. It’s not from the National Enquirer. It’s a statistical proJection from social scientists at Berkeley and the Max Planck Anne Alstott is the Jacquin D. Bierman Professor in Taxation at Yale Law School. An expert in taxation and social policy, she was named a professor at Yale Law School in 1997 and orig- inally named the Jacquin D.

He was nominated to the court in 1987 by President Ronald Reagan, and sworn in on February 18, 1988. After the retirement of Sandra Day O'Connor in 2006, he was the swing vote on many of the Roberts Court's 5–4 decisions. Born in Sacramento, California, Kennedy took over his father's legal practice in Sacramento after graduating from Harvard Law School. In 1975, President Gerald Ford appointed Kennedy to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. In November 1987, after two failed attempts at nominating a successor to Associate Justice Lewis F. Powell Jr., President Reagan nominated Kennedy to the Supreme Court. Kennedy won unanimous confirmation from the United States Senate in February 1988. Following the death of Antonin Scalia in February 2016, Kennedy became the Senior Associate Justice of the Court; he remained the Senior Associate Justice until his July 2018 retirement.
