  • The Death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg: Initial Considerations for Congress
    Legal Sidebari The Death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg: Initial Considerations for Congress September 21, 2020 On September 18, 2020, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the second woman to serve on the Supreme Court of the United States, passed away at the age of eighty-seven, vacating a seat on the High Court that she had held for twenty-seven years. Nominated to replace Justice Byron White in 1993, Justice Ginsburg already had a trailblazing career as a law school professor; Supreme Court litigator; co-founder of the American Civil Liberties Union’s Women’s Rights Project; and judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit (D.C. Circuit) for thirteen years. Several of her opinions have been consequential, including her 1996 majority opinion in United States v. Virginia, holding that women could not be denied admission to the Virginia Military Institute on the basis of their sex. Justice Brett Kavanaugh said in a recent statement that “no American has ever done more than Justice Ginsburg to ensure equal justice under law for women.” Justice Ginsburg was also noted for her pointed dissents, including in Shelby County v. Holder (2013), where the Court struck down a key provision of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, and in Ledbetter v. Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. (2007), where the Court rejected a Title VII employment discrimination claim. In more recent years, Justice Ginsburg gained recognition in popular culture, becoming known by the moniker “the notorious RBG.” She was the subject of books, movies, and an opera, and in 2015, was named one of Time magazine’s one hundred most influential people.

  • Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals Mourns Passing of Judge Pamela Ann Rymer
    N E W S R E L E A S E September 22, 2011 Contact: David Madden (415) 355-8800 Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals Mourns Passing of Judge Pamela Ann Rymer SAN FRANCISCO – The Hon. Pamela Ann Rymer, a distinguished judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, died Wednesday, September 21, 2011, after a long illness. She was 69. Judge Rymer was diagnosed with cancer in 2009 and had been in failing health in recent months. She passed with friends at her bedside. “Judge Rymer maintained her calendar throughout her illness,” observed Ninth Circuit Chief Judge Alex Kozinski. “Her passion for the law and dedication to the work of the court was inspiring. She will be sorely missed by all of her colleagues.” Judge Rymer served on the federal bench at both the appellate and trial levels for more than 28 years. Nominated by President Reagan, she was appointed a judge of the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California on February 24, 1983. She was elevated to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals by President George H.W. Bush, receiving her commission on May 22, 1989. During her 22 years on the appellate court, Judge Rymer sat on more than 800 merits panels and authored 335 panel opinions. She last heard oral arguments in July and her most recent opinion was filed in August. Her productivity was remarkable and every case received her full attention, colleagues said. "Each case was intrinsically important to her. Finding the right answer for the parties and doing the law correctly were foremost in her mind in every matter.

  • Supreme Court Institute Term Preview Report, October Term 2016
    GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY LAW CENTER SUPREME COURT INSTITUTE SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES OCTOBER TERM 2016 PREVIEW September 2016 A LOOK AHEAD AT OCTOBER TERM 2016 1 The recently completed Supreme Court Term demonstrates the futility of forecasting expectations when a new Term is about to begin. At this time last year, no one could have foreseen what was by far the most significant event of October Term 2015 – the sudden death of Justice Antonin Scalia. The loss of the Court’s most vibrant member altered the outcome of some of last Term’s most significant cases, and continues to reverberate in the work and operations of the Court. By all appearances, Justice Scalia’s absence has affected the cases accepted for review, the scheduling of those cases for oral argument, and the disposition during the summer recess of stay motions in cases moving through the cert pipeline. The impact of Justice Scalia’s death, and the uncertain identity of the Justice who will occupy his seat, underscore the unsettled ideological balance on the Court and the power of a single vote. This report previews the Supreme Court’s argument docket for October Term 2016 (OT 2016). The Court has thus far accepted 31 cases for review (two pairs have been consolidated for briefing and argument) – fewer than half the cases that the Court typically hears each Term. Section I discusses some especially noteworthy cases on the Court’s argument docket. Section II organizes the cases accepted for review into subject-matter categories and provides a brief summary of each.

Justice Byron White and the Importance of Process 0 by CARL TOBIAS Byron R. White was a twentieth-century Renaissance person. 1 At the University of Colorado, White captured honors as the valedictorian and an All-American football player. In autumn 1938, he rushed for the greatest National Football League yardage. The following semester, White attended Oxford University on a Rhodes Scholarship. He then compiled the best academic record in the Yale Law School first-year class and later served as a judicial clerk for Chief Justice Frederick Vinson. During 1961, President John F. Kennedy named White the Deputy Attorney General where he soon thereafter addressed violence inflicted on African­ Americans by desegregation opponents.2 The next year, Kennedy characterized White as the "ideal New Frontier judge" when appointing him to the U.S. Supreme Court, and the jurist rendered distinguished service for three decades.
