Current Challenges to the Federal Judiciary Carolyn Dineen King* -Remarks at the Judge Alvin B. and Janice Rubin 2005 Lectures, October 25, 2005, Paul M. Hebert Law Center, Louisiana State University. INTRODUCTION In the United States, an independent judicial system enjoying the confidence of the citizenry is central to preserving the rule of law. The rule of law, in turn, is the bedrock of both our federal and state judicial systems. I will mention several challenges to the independence of the Judiciary that are operative today and seem, to me at least, to be particularly troubling. I will also talk about some fundamental changes that are occurring in the federal district and appellate courts. During the nearly seven years that I have been Chief Judge of the Fifth Circuit and a member of the Judicial Conference of the United States, I have been privileged to have a ring side seat on the relations among the three branches of government and particularly on the effects of the political branches on the federal judiciary. -

Challenges to Judicial Independence an a Perspective from the Circuit Co
HALLOWS | LECTURE Challenges to Judicial Independence an A Perspective from the Circuit Co The Honorable Carolyn Dineen King, of the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, visited campus last year as the Law School’s Hallows Judicial Fellow. The highlight of her visit was the annual Hallows Lecture, which was subsequently published in the Marquette Law Review and appears here as well. Introduction by Dean Joseph D. Kearney t is my privilege to welcome you to our annual E. Harold Hallows Lecture. This lecture series began in 1995, Iand we have had the good fortune more or less annually since then to be joined by a distinguished jurist who spends a day or two within the Law School community. This is our Hallows Judicial Fellow. Some of these judges we meet for the fi rst time. Others are more known to us beforehand—already part of us, really. Within that latter category, I am very grateful that today we have with us two of our past Hallows Fellows. I would like to recognize them. Chief Justice Shirley Abrahamson of the Wisconsin Supreme Court delivered the Hallows Lecture in 2003, my fi rst year as dean. She is a friend of the Law School as well as a friend of this year’s Hallows Fellow. The other is Judge Diane Sykes, a Marquette lawyer (Class of 1984), who is a member of the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit and who delivered the Hallows Lecture in 2006. Thank you to both Chief Justice Abrahamson and Judge Sykes for being with us today. -

REFLECTIONS ON THE LIFE AND WORK OF JUSTICE BYRON R. WHITE Lance M Liebman' I am honored to be at this distinguished law school. Lee Irish and I were law clerks for Justice White the same year, at a time when a Justice only had two law clerks. Those were the days when the people older than us, who had been clerks when there was only one clerk in each office, would say, "You don't have the same experience, because the Justice is dealing with two of you so it is not as intense." Of course, now with as many as four clerks in each office, it is different still. Lee and I had a fascinating year together. It was 1967 and 1968, when, for the first time in a long time, a certain degree of chaos came upon this city and the country. -

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.
