Download of the Week: “In Casa You Missed It” by Sohoni
The Download of the Week is In CASA You Missed It by Mila Sohoni. Here is the abstract: This Essay’s purpose is to show how Trump v. CASA should be read—and how it emphatically should not be read. While CASA rejected one pathway to universal injunctive relief on statutory grounds, the decision simultaneously left intact a number of alternative routes to broad relief, including complete relief injunctions, universal remedies under the APA and other statutes, class actions, and relief based on associational and state standing.

Smolin on Nontherapeutic Research with Children
David M. Smolin (Samford University - Cumberland School of Law) has posted Nontherapeutic Research with Children: The Virtues and Vices of Legal Uncertainty on SSRN. Here is the abstract: This essay examines the legal framework governing nontherapeutic research involving children, arguing that the law deliberately embraces uncertainty rather than providing clear substantive rules. Federal regulations prioritize process—through Institutional Review Boards, parental permission, and child assent—over definitive standards, reflecting societal ambivalence about subjecting children to risk for societal benefit.

Here is the abstract: The Fourth Amendment’s concept of probable cause is the linchpin of legal standards governing law enforcement actions such as arrests, searches, and seizures. This article challenges the assumption that the same quantum of evidence can meet the probable cause standard regardless of whether law enforcement seek to conduct a search, to seize evidence, or to make an arrest, and regardless of the intrusiveness of such search or seizure.

Here is the abstract: In 2019, the U.S. Supreme Court closed the federal courthouse doors to claims of partisan gerrymandering, effectively permitting states to engage in what it called “constitutional political gerrymandering.” By 2025, several states embraced this invitation, redrawing maps mid-decade for openly partisan ends.

Gold on Kinds of Private Law Justice
Andrew S. Gold (University of California, Irvine School of Law) has posterd The Many Kinds of Justice in Private Law on SSRN. Here is the abstract: Private law theorists often employ a single type of justice to explain the field. Typically, the chosen type is corrective justice. While it is true that courts look to do “justice between the parties”, I will argue that “justice between the parties” is an open-ended category that encapsulates multiple types of justice.

Slocum & Tobia on Textualism and Consequences
Brian G. Slocum & Kevin Tobia have posted the final version of Pragmatic Textualism on the Duke Law Journal website. Here is the abstract: Traditional textualism instructs judges to adhere to a statute's linguistic meaning and reject as irrelevant its interpretive consequences. Justice Scalia famously contrasted his restrained textualist judge with "Mr. Fix-It," a judge who inappropriately weighs consequences. Today, however, textualists increasingly embrace consequentialist reasoning.

Lerer on Orthodoxy and Rational Debate
Ignacio Adrian Lerer has posted Epistemological Clergies: When Orthodoxy Blocks Rational Debate on SSRN. Here is the abstract: Why is rational debate about criminal or labor law reform impossible in certain jurisdictions This article proposes that dominant legal doctrines function as secular religions with memetic architectures immune to rational debate. Applying Daniel Dennett's framework on religion as natural phenomenon, I argue that extreme criminal guarantism, orthodox abolitionism, and unconditional defense of labor ultraactivity exhibit religious structures: (1) sacralization of concepts, (2) conversion of empirical disagreements into moral transgressions, (3) exclusion through costly signaling, and (4) ideological purity blocking gradualism.

Jacob Eisler (Florida State University College of Law) has posted Populist Primacy (Brooklyn Law Review, Forthcoming 2025) on SSRN. Here is the abstract: Critics of the Roberts Court assert that the conservative justices are remaking American democracy to implement a corrupt Republican agenda. Conversely, the justices claim to be following originalism, with democratic transformation as an incidental side effect.
