Every lawyer/lawprof should read this important new @YaleLJournal article by my colleague @AvielRebecca & @sturmCOL '23 grad Wiley Kersh. State legislatures are deterring litigation w/ threat of catastrophic attorneys fees- see TX abortion legislation & CA gun legislation. More⬇️
Replying to @YaleLJournal
In their Article, @AvielRebecca (@UofDenver) and Wiley Kersh (@UofDenver) consider S.B. 8’s novel fee-shifting regime and argue that it threatens the values of access to courts and fairness that undergird our legal system: yalelawjournal.org/article/t…
With that said, our hypothesis would be consistent with some of the interviews conducted by the great @JCSchwartzProf, described in this @WMLawReview article: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.…
and elaborated in her phenomenal new book, "Shielded": amazon.com/Shielded-How-Poli…

Excited to announce that a new constitutional history journal will soon launch based @WisconsinLaw. The journal will strive to fill the gap between traditional history journals and popular outlets. Any member of the Senior Editorial Board would be happy to answer questions. – at Brookline, MA

Honored to be among the newly elected members of @AmLawInst -- but to be elected alongside my long-time mentor and friend Stephen Bright makes it particularly humbling and special. @southerncenter @GeorgiaStateLaw @CenterA2J ali.org/members/newly-electe…
The thing about cats is that every cat has a huge personality. You never meet a cat and then later think "ehhh he was just kind of there." Cats let you know who they are. For example here's Lucky in a sink. #caturday
Such an important and timely program from @DUAnimalLaw tonight, including my @SturmCOL colleague @justin_marceau in conversation w/ panelists Tayler Zavitz @almiratanner @mollyelwood & @UofDenver film prof Joe Brown. Program will continue tomorrow -- see below for schedule.

35 years ago last night, my mother, brother and I landed at JFK on a long Lufthansa flight. My father had gone ahead of us; our mom didn't know if we had utensils at our new home, so she asked our flight attendant if we could keep the cutlery. She quietly said yes.
Very excited to be hosting Paul at @uofdenver @sturmcol on Nov 10 for a talk on his groundbreaking book! Stay tuned to @DUsturmCRRP for more information! nitter.cf/PaulGowder/status/1577…

No, I think these are very different. "Treat everyone as well as white people" (a paraphrase of the Civil Rights Act of 1866) acknowledges that some people are currently NOT treated as well as white people. Otherwise there'd be no need for the legislation in the first place.
