A BmLIOGRAPHY FOR THE UNITED STATES COURTS OF APPEALS· by Thomas E. Baker" If we are to keep our democracy, there must be one commandment: Thou shalt not ration justice. - Learned Handl This Bibliography was compiled for a book by the present author entitled, RATIONING JUSTICE ON ApPEAL - THE PROBLEMS OF THE V.S. COURTS OF APPEALS, published in 1994 by the West Publishing Company. That book is a general inquiry into the question whether the United States Courts of Appeals have broken Judge Hand's commandment already and, if not, whether the Congress and the Courts inevitably will be forced to yield to the growing temptation to ration justice on appeal. After a brief history of the intermediate federal courts, the book describes the received tradition and the federal appellate ideal. The book next explains the "crisis in volume," the consequences from the huge docket growth experienced in the Courts of Appeals since the 1960s and projected to continue for the foreseeable future.

INTRODUCTION Written laws guiding civil actions in the federal district courts chiefly address the presentation, preparation and resolution of claims involving parties. However, the courts often also consider claims in- volving nonparties as well as nonclaim matters involving parties and nonparties alike. Guidelines here mainly appear in federal precedents and, to a lesser extent, in local court rules. They often follow in-state court practices. The absence of written general laws for nonparty claims and nonclaim matters often leads to unnecessary confusion and t Jeffrey A. Parness is a professor of law at Northern Illinois University. He holds a Juris Doctorate from the University of Chicago and a Bachelor of Arts from Colby College. tt Tait J. Lundgren is a second-year law student at Northern Illinois University. He holds a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Dayton. CREIGHTON LAW REVIEW [Vol. 36 unfair procedures.' New, generally applicable written guidelines could help reduce uncertainty and promote fairness. 2 To exemplify, we shall particularly explore possible reforms in settlement conference settings where the interests of nonparty insur- ers are at stake, as well as in adjudicatory settings where nonparty insurers seek recoveries from proceeds obtained by their insureds as party claimants.

The Political Ideologies of Law Clerks and their Judges Adam Bonica, Adam Chilton, Jacob Goldin, Kyle Rozema, & Maya Sen∗ February 29, 2016 We study the political ideology of judicial law clerks using a novel dataset that combines the most comprehensive data sources on political ideology and the identity of U.S. federal law clerks. First, we examine the distribu- tion of clerks' ideology and ﬁnd that clerks tend to be disproportionately liberal, with clerks on lower courts being more liberal on average than clerks for higher courts. Second, we ﬁnd that judges tend to consistently hire clerks with similar ideologies and that those ideologies track available measures of the judge's own ideology.

On Not Making Law
GULATI.FMT 04/01/99 5:01 PM ON NOT MAKING LAW MITU GULATI* AND C.M.A. MCCAULIFF** I INTRODUCTION Consider the following scenario: A three-judge panel on a federal court of appeals has before it a complex se- curities law case. Each of the three judges on the panel is a former criminal law- yer. Among the three, the only experience any one of them has with securities law is a single course on the subject that one of them took thirty years ago. The central issue in the case is both difficult and close. Although there is no useful case law on point, the issue frequently arises both in litigation and in prac- tice. Many cases have involved the issue, but each court has found an alternative basis to decide the case before it, leaving the issue unresolved. Presently, at least two district court cases that raise a similar issue are on appeal in other circuits. If the panel tackles the issue squarely, its decision is likely to affect both the pending litigation in those other cases and the behavior of corporate actors in future transactions. The judges do not have strong feelings about how the case should come out. Each side has made out a strong case. The judges are, however, concerned about the amount of time and effort that writing an opinion in this case is likely to take. Given the lack of expertise, the judges are each concerned about the errors they might make in an opinion. Errors here are likely to be costly not only because the opinion will be binding precedent in this circuit, but also because the opinion is likely to influence other circuits.
