OT2017 #29: “Average Joe”

Live from New York, it’s First Mondays! Many thanks to Shearman & Sterling for hosting us.

We have some more opinions as the Supreme Court attempts to finish OT2017 on time. First, we’ll discuss #KaganStyle in Sveen v. Melin, along with what the decision means for a certain advocate’s win-loss record. We’ll also talk about why registering to vote shouldn’t be so difficult, what happens when an eight-member court is equally divided, how to keep things chill at the polls, and which version of the dictionary is the best version.
