Notes re: OKC v. Houston last night:
1. OKC picked Sengun in 2021 then traded him to Houston for two future picks. Presti is a genius, but sometimes things go awry in the lab.
2. Feb 27, 2016 deja vu for KD. Then, Curry hit the winning basket as GSW beat OKC. Last night, it was Shai FTW.
Thank you to Victor Suthammanont, writer and attorney, for discussing his first novel, Hollow Spaces, on this Touro L Rev podcast. The novel explores race and racism, the legal system and the search for truth, and, more than anything else, the bonds of family.

Great conversation on Cook v. Trump. Particularly appreciate the recognition that we are talking about a real person—Lisa Cook—who is a highly respected scholar and committed public servant. I would add: then there’s the guy on the other side of the “v”
Sat down for a chat with Roger Citron just hours after the opinion dropped in Cook v. Trump. Not a lot of certainty here but it was a fun conversation! @blakeprof.bsky.social @nicholasbednar.bsky.social @stevevladeck.bsky.social

Cook v. Trump raises fascinating legal issues:
What constitutes legal "cause" for the President to remove a Federal Reserve Governor?
What process is required?
Is judicial review available?

Four law professors debate whether secession could happen in modern America. While most agree geographic realities make state secession unlikely, author @rodgerdcitron.bsky.social explores how "soft secession" through sanctuary cities and nullification may already be occurring.

Jalen Williams (2025 All-Star and All-NBA)

This framing is ridiculous.

Professor @rodgerdcitron.bsky.social reflects on Justice David Souter’s legacy and suggests that Souter‘s intellectual rigor and nuanced opinions in cases like Twombly and Mead, though admirable, may have unintentionally limited their long-term impact on the law.

Many obituaries of Justice Souter’ highlighted his brilliance and some noted his common-law approach to judging. On occasion, Souter may have been too smart for his own good because these qualities sometimes worked at cross purposes. I discuss further here:

Rest in peace Justice David Souter.
Souter wrote the plurality opinion in United States v. Winstar Corp. (1996), which spawned more than a decade of litigation in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims. I worked on a number of "Winstar" cases and wrote about them here: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....
Lessons from the Damages Decisions Following United States v. Winstar Corp.
