  • Resignations and Removals: a History of Federal Judicial Service-And Disservice-1789-1992
    RESIGNATIONS AND REMOVALS: A HISTORY OF FEDERAL JUDICIAL SERVICE-AND DISSERVICE-1789-1992 EMILY FIELD VAN TASSEL- Thomas Jefferson's dismay over the failed impeachment of Supreme Court Justice Samuel Chase in 1805 led him later to complain that "impeachment is not even a scarecrow."1 Subse- quent events have proven Jefferson wrong. Although the full panoply of the impeachment process has been used rarely, its existence has given Congress an impressively big stick to wield in persuading miscreant judges to leave the bench.2 Since Jefferson's time, our experience has suggested two important conclusions about judicial discipline and removal. The first is that investigations, threats of investigations, and threats of impeachment can be very powerful tools in inducing judges to resign from office voluntarily. The second is that these tools have a great potential for misuse. Judicial independence is a core value supported by the constitu- tional structure of the federal judiciary. The appointment process, salary protection, and removal mechanism are all means to ensure that federal judges be independent and impartial in their decision- t Visiting Associate Professor, Widener University School of Law. This Article is dedicated to the memory of my brother, Dirck Van Tassel. An earlier version of this Article was prepared as a report to the National Commission onjudicial Discipline and Removal, while I was Associate Historian with the Federal judicial History Office of the Federal Judicial Center. The views and conclusions expressed in this Article are my own and do not necessarily represent the views of the FederalJudicial Center, which, on matters of policy, speaks only through its Board.

    Hoosier Justice: The Journal of David McDonald, 1864-1868 Edited by Dmld 0. Dewey* David McDonald of Indianapolis, United States judge for the District of Indiana from 1864 to 1869, has been well described as a Hoosier Pepys. Aside from the diaries which he kept, he wrote an exhortatory autobiographical essay for his son, penned a number of autobiographical letters, and- crowning glory-even made an address “as from the coffin” to guide the lives of those at his graveside.’ Portions of McDonald’s “little black book,” the small travel diary which he kept when he was separated from the ledger-type book in which he ordinarily recorded his daily activities, were printed in the Indiam Magazine of History in 1931.* They tell, primarily, of his visits to Washington, D. C. The diary entries which follow are of more interest to Indiana historians, for they relate the day-to-day activities of an active participant and penetrating observer of the Indiana courts and bar during the last year of the Civil War and the first three years of Reconstruction. McDonald gives incautious-sometimes explosive-de- scriptions of the men of importance in Indiana politics and jurisprudence in his day. Furthermore, he gives an interest- ing account of the life of an Indiana lawyer in the mid- nineteenth century. The practice of law brought many satisfactions; but it also involved much unrewarding drudgery, such as traveling to distant courts for trials which were postponed and lodging four-to-a-room at inns with other lawyers and clients. While he took tea with many of his legal foes, he was in danger of being forced to exchange shots * Donald 0.

  • Politics and Treason in the Civil War North
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: “TO AID THEIR REBEL FRIENDS”: POLITICS AND TREASON IN THE CIVIL WAR NORTH Jonathan W. White, Doctor of Philosophy, 2008 Directed By: Professor Herman Belz Department of History In “To Aid Their Rebel Friends” I argue that Civil War-era politicians relied on meanings of treason from old English law and Revolutionary-era America to broaden the definition of treason beyond the narrow definition found in the Constitution. In doing so, they gave new meaning to words and phrases in the Constitution that had been dormant for many years. Treason is the only crime defined in the U.S. Constitution: “Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.” The next sentence states that treason must be an “overt Act,” thus precluding judges or politicians from declaring that conspiracy or words might be deemed treason. In defining treason narrowly the Framers hoped to depoliticize a crime that for centuries had been political in nature. In early modern England kings could define treason however they chose and force judges to convict the accused, simply to eliminate political opposition. Moreover, since the fourteenth century it was a treasonable offence to imagine or compass the king’s death. The Founders hoped to avoid such occurrences on American soil. Despite the Founders’ precaution of carefully defining treason in the nation’s fundamental law, the Civil War transformed how treason was understood in American legal and political culture. The definition of treason broadened to include more than just overt acts of war.

This Article was prepared for (and presented at) Temple Law Review's March 2007 Symposium on "Executive Power: Exploring the Limits of Article II," for my participation in which I owe thanks to Brian Neulander.

There is actually much to be said about the debate over whether Taney issued the opinion in his capacity as Circuit Justice for the District of Maryland or as Chief Justice of the United States in chambers. Carl Brent Swisher, Taney's principal biographer and author of the authoritative history of the Taney Court, was emphatic that "Merryman's counsel decided to go directly to the Chief Justice, not as circuit judge but as the head of the Supreme Court."
