Given the seemingly intractable nature of “woman problem” at law firms, Stacy wondered if the hackathon structure might surface new approaches. She approached Stanford Law School, recognizing that our position at the intersection of law and innovation made us an ideal co-sponsor for such an event. The Women in Law Hackathon brought together 54 high-level partners from law firms across the U.S. They worked together (virtually) in teams of 6 with two expert advisors and a Stanford Law student from January to June 2016. The teams presented their ideas in- person to a panel of judges at the pitch event at SLS on June 24, 2016.

LAHAV GALLEYSPROOFS2 6/13/2016 1:15 PM THE ROLES OF LITIGATION IN AMERICAN DEMOCRACY ∗ Alexandra D. Lahav ABSTRACT Adjudication is usually understood as having two functions: dispute resolution and law declaration. This Article presents the process of litigation as a third, equally important function and explains how in litigation, participants perform rule of law values. Performativity in litigation operates in five ways. First, litigation allows individuals, even the most downtrodden, to obtain recognition from a governmental officer (a judge) of their claims. Second, it promotes the production of reasoned arguments about legal questions and presentation of proofs in public, subject to cross-examination and debate. Third, it promotes transparency by forcing information required to present proofs and arguments to be revealed. Fourth, it aids in the enforcement of the law in two ways: by requiring wrongdoers to answer for their conduct to the tribunal and by revealing information that is used by other actors to enforce or change existing regulatory regimes.

  • Divided We Litigate: Addressing Disputes Among Group Members and Lawyers in Civil Rights Campaigns
    Articles Divided We Litigate: Addressing Disputes Among Group Members and Lawyers in Civil Rights Campaigns William B. Rubenstein' Should political processes control the kinds of litigation a private attorney general can institute?' Groups are messy. They are, by definition, comprised of many individuals and thus encompass a range of desires and agendas. Any group must generate ways to reach decisions among these competing possibilities. Typically, groups develop formal and informal mechanisms to define their goals and strategies. Consider a law school faculty. The faculty is an identifiable group of individuals that has a set of formal decisionmaking processes for the various types of choices it must make. A faculty votes on whom to admit to the school, what courses will be offered, who will teach these courses, and upon whom degrees will be conferred. Most faculties accomplish these decisions by some form of democratic process (majority or supermajority votes following participatory, dialogic meetings) or by some form of expertise (delegation to committees that study issues in depth and provide recommendations to, or simply make decisions for, the group). It would be rare to find a faculty Acting Associate Professor of Law, Stanford Law School. An initial version of this Article was presented as a work in progress to the faculty at George Washington Univcrsity's National Law Center. I thank Paul Butler for initiating that invitation and the faculty for their constructive comments.

  • Institutionalizing Rights in the National Security Executive
    Institutionalizing Rights in the National Security Executive Shirin Sinnar* The national security executive has grown explosively in size and power since September 11, 2001. This Article highlights a parallel development that has largely escaped notice: the rise in institutions within the executive branch chargedwith monitoring and protecting individual rights and liberties. Emerg- ing out of dual political impulses to expand executive power and protect rights, these institutions have proliferated,and theirpaths have diverged. A civil rights office struggled for influence across multiple political administrations;an In- spector General exposed rights violations and triggered reform; a civil liberties board capitalized on the Snowden controversy to surmount presidential neglect but not partisan division. Together, these case studies suggest that internal rights oversight is constantly challenged; only with a rare confluence of leader- ship, design, and external political circumstances can these institutions succeed. From these accounts, the Article makes three claims on the challenges and con- straintsfacing these institutions. First, rights-oversight institutions designed as "external reviewers," rather than as "internaladvisors, "may be betterpoised to reform policy. Second, both kinds of institutions face serious limitations in shaping executive legal interpretation on national security authority or the scope of legal rights. Third, these institutions are at perennial risk of mission drift - of shifting their attention from promoting rights to protecting national security. Ultimately, internal rights oversight plays a necessary but limited role in protecting rights at risk from the national security state.

    HOW TO BUILD A PUBLIC INTEREST LAWYER (AND HELP ALL LAW STUDENTS ALONG THE WAY) By Aliza B. Kaplanx I. Introduction We hear a great deal about the ineffectiveness of law school education and the lack of preparation for practice provided to law school students.1 But this is nothing new to public interest lawyers. In fact, students entering law school with plans for careers in public interest law regularly express dissatisfaction with their law school experience.2 The “signature pedagogy” of x Associate Professor, Lewis & Clark Law School.
