An Amusingly Inapt Citation to Orin Kerr, A Theory of Law, 16 Green Bag 2d 111 (2012)
I learned today on Twitter that Orin’s one-page article, A Theory of Law was cited in its first judicial opinion. Given what the article says (go ahead, read it, I’ll wait), I was rather surprised to hear this, so I went and read the citing passage: Both claims also allege conspiracy to commit negligence. See […]
“30 Best Pun Business Names Ever”

On the Lighter Side
In a week filled with news of threats of nuclear war from North Korea, the death of Latin American tyrants, scary assertions of executive power to execute Americans without due process, not to mention highly impertinent questions asked of prominent law professors, here is some lighter news–my son at four months with his evil twin.
Micro-Symposium on “A Theory of Law”
In response to my recent article, A Theory of Law, the editors of the The Green Bag have posted contributions its micro-symposium about my essay: Micro-Symposium on Orin Kerr’s ‘A Theory of Law’.
Motion to Kiss My Ass III
For the first, see Washington v. Alaiimo. For the second, see State v. Law. For the latest, see this quote from champion boxer Juan Manuel Marquez, as reported in BoxingScene.com (though I admit that this likely won’t get to court): [Trainer Freddie] Roach told me if I would would come out clean in the anti-doping […]

What Were They Thinking — The Supreme Court in Revue, OT2011
The new phonebook’s here! The new phonebook’s here! As some of you know, I have sporadically done semi-humorous and often factual Supreme Court Term-end wrap-ups. The fifth installment in this eminently deletable series is now available at the Green Bag. This is the first I’ve done with a co-author, which may help explain why it’s […]
Disestablishment of Norway’s Church
Michael Lorton writes: Norway is now planning to separate the Protestant Lutheran Church from the government. I am serenely indifferent to this fact. I [am] devastated, utterly gutted, however, that the news coverage of this event did not include any mention of the politicians who opposed the step. My God, just think of it: MPs […]
Funniest Comment on the New York Times online
News item: Bloomberg Backs Plan to Limit Arrests for Marijuana ALBANY — Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg said on Monday that he would support a proposal by Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo to significantly curb the number of people who could be arrested for marijuana possession as a result of police stops. Best reader comment: Just don’t get […]
The Lochner Awards
Despite my pre-oral argument warning that Lochner v. New York really has nothing to do with the constitutionality of the individual mandate, Lochner has consistently arisen. Most prominently, of course, the President mentioned Lochner (and in a dubious context), but only after the Solicitor General raised it at oral argument, CJ Roberts parried, and Justice […]
