  • On Linde, Lawmaking, and Legacies Philip
    HONORING HANS: ON LINDE, LAWMAKING, AND LEGACIES PHILIP P. FRicKEY* It is a great honor to present the keynote address at this symposium, "Unparalleled Justice: The Legacy of Hans Linde." The symposium raises several concerns, however. First, consider the title. In his wonderful book, The Devil's Dictionary, Ambrose Bierce defined "legacy" as "a gift from one who is legging it out of this vale of tears."' Yet the work of Hans Linde remains vigorous and ongoing. Indeed, to those of us who know and follow his activities, he remains the Energizer bunny of public law at the age of 82. He just keeps right on going, on the Council of the American Law Institute, on the Oregon Law Commission, and in conversation with students and scholars alike. Second, in honoring Hans, we run the risk of duplication. This is not the first festschrift for him.2 To see if I could find anything new to say, I ran a Google search. I discovered the following: "Hans Linde happens to have a big thing for blondes."3 Alas, it turns out that this particular Hans Linde is a middle-aged fellow who lives in Germany and is involved in some sort of flight simulation club. This Hans Linde likes to simulate flights to Scandinavia. Not our Hans Linde. But for a moment there, I thought I had a new headline for all *Alexander F. and May T. Morrison Professor of Law, University of California at Berkeley (Boalt Hall). This essay encompasses the keynote address presented at the Willamette University College of Law Symposium, UnparalleledJustice: The Legacy of Hans Linde, held on October 27, 2006, supplemented by light footnoting.

  • Angry Judges
    Angry Judges Terry A. Maroney* Abstract Judges get angry. Law, however, is of two minds as to whether they should; more importantly, it is of two minds as to whether judges’ anger should influence their behavior and decision making. On the one hand, anger is the quintessentially judicial emotion. It involves appraisal of wrongdoing, attribution of blame, and assignment of punishment—precisely what we ask of judges. On the other, anger is associated with aggression, impulsivity, and irrationality. Aristotle, through his concept of virtue, proposed reconciling this conflict by asking whether a person is angry at the right people, for the right reasons, and in the right way. Modern affective psychology, for its part, offers empirical tools with which to determine whether and when anger conforms to Aristotelian virtue. This Article weaves these strands together to propose a new model of judicial anger: that of the righteously angry judge. The righteously angry judge is angry for good reasons; experiences and expresses that anger in a well-regulated manner; and uses her anger to motivate and carry out the tasks within her delegated authority. Offering not only the first comprehensive descriptive account of judicial anger but also first theoretical model for how such anger ought to be evaluated, the Article demonstrates how judicial behavior and decision making can benefit by harnessing anger—the most common and potent judicial emotion—in service of righteousness.
