Prof. Robert Leider on the arguments in Barnes v. Felix
Professor Robert Leider, who writes in both constitutional law and criminal law, passed along these comments on the Supreme Court's...
What a great label: "constitutional vandalism." We are already bitterly divided over how to interpret law. Creating divisions about what words are actually in the Constitution pours gasoline on the fire.
Why do this when heading out the door, when nothing has changed since 2020? An act of constitutional vandalism
President Biden’s commutations signal the time to have mandatory Supreme Court direct review of all capital cases for all issues, including ineffective assistance of counsel. It’s past time to shorten collateral review, which also hurts defendants with a weaker legal standard.
nytimes.com/2024/12/23/us/… This is a serious violation of public justice, far worse than President Biden’s previous clemency action. Congress and President Trump will need to figure out ways to reduce capital appeal times to prevent similar shenanigans by future administrations.
I hope @fedjudges is correct. In the interim, congratulations to Bronni on his appointment to the Arkansas Supreme Court. I look forward to teaching his opinions in class.
Both Arkansas-based judges on the Eighth Circuit are eligible for senior status. I think Nicholas Bronni's tenure on the Arkansas Supreme Court will be a short one.
This is a major separation of powers problem, and it’s likely unconstitutional. Presidents choose judges. Judges don’t nominate their successors. President Trump should nominate someone for his seat, and the Senate should confirm.
Judge James Wynn of the Fourth Circuit has rescinded his decision to take senior status, two days after the White House withdrew the nomination of Ryan Park to fill the seat.
Analysis: Gun-Rights Advocates Would Benefit More From ATF Reform Than the Agency’s Elimination (By @LeiderRob) Link: thereload.com/analysis-gun-r…
With President Biden's pardon of his son, Hunter regains his rights to possess and carry a firearm. President Biden could have pardoned him without restoring his gun rights. See 18 U.S.C. § 921(a)(20).
Some have asked whether the choice of Attorney General matters for the Second Amendment and for federal gun control policy. It does. Ultimately, the Attorney General controls ATF and its director. See 28 U.S.C. § 599A(a).
