    The Media & Communications Committee present First Amendment and the U.S. Supreme Court Friday, June 28, 2019, 2:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. COURSE CLASSIFICATION: INTERMEDIATE Course 3207 [email protected] Moderator: Thomas R. Julin, shareholder, Gunster Yoakley & Stewart, P.A. Panel: U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit Judge Adalberto Jordan; U.S. District Judge Donald M. Middlebrooks; University of Miami Law Professor Lili Levi; Florida International University Law Professor Howard Wasserman; Leslie Rothenberg, Retired Chief Judge, Florida Third District Court of Appeal and partner, the Ferraro Law Firm; Carlton Fields Jorden Burt shareholder Richard J. Ovelmen; and Timothy J. McGinn of Gunster Yoakley & Stewart, P.A. This panel will take its first in‐depth look at the First Amendment philosophy of Justice Brett Kavanaugh through the prism of eight new controversial Supreme Court cases. One was written in just a single day. The 5‐4 decision overturned a Judge Stanley Marcus stay of the execution of a Muslim prisoner because Georgia would not let an imam into the death chamber. The Supreme Court will take much more time to decide whether a massive stone cross must be removed from a traffic intersection in Maryland. The Court also is expected to put to rest its long debate over legislators favoring their own parties through gerrymandering. A police bust of a partier at ArcticMan in the Hoodoo Mountains of Alaska should set the rules for speech‐based retaliatory arrests. Two years ago the Court opened the door to disparaging trademarks. Now the owner of the FUCT mark wants the ban on scandalous and immoral marks gone too.

    8 LJALWD 239 Page 1 8 Legal Comm. & Rhetoric: JALWD 239 Legal Communication & Rhetoric: JALWD Fall, 2011 Article and Essay *239 JUDICIAL CLERKSHIPS A Bibliography Mary Dunnewold, Beth Honetschlager, Brenda Tofte [FNa1] Copyright © 2011 by the Association of Legal Writing Directors; Mary Dunnewold, Beth Honetschlager, Brenda Tofte WESTLAW LAWPRAC INDEX ADV -- Advocacy & Lawyering Skills Introduction Approximately 3,000 judicial clerkships are filled each year by new law school graduates. [FN1] Most law schools also offer judicial internship or externship courses, allowing students to earn academic credit for work performed as judicial clerks. [FN2] These courses often involve a classroom component in which students read about and discuss judicial decision-making, the judge's and clerk's roles, judicial writing, and other relevant top- ics. Recognizing the value of working behind the scenes in a judge's chambers, some law students even seek out and obtain volunteer positions as judicial clerks. [FN3] A wide variety of materials about judicial clerkships is available in bar journals, law reviews, and books, and on relevant web sites. This bibliography brings together the more recent of these materials and categorizes them by topic. The resulting compilation should be useful to academic professionals planning judicial-clerkship classes or externship experiences, law students contemplating judicial-clerkship positions and wanting to know more, and recent law school graduates preparing to enter judicial clerkships. [FN4] *240 We limited the bibliography to materials published since 1980 for two reasons. First, reliance on judi- cial clerks has exploded since the 1960s, [FN5] and advice to clerks may have changed as clerkship positions have become both more competitive and more available.
