About this episode
In an all-star hearing, the Supreme Court considers a melange of legal and philosophical arguments concerning the “independent state legislature” doctrine. But first, David and Sarah revisit 303 Creative and debate the Tough (with a capital T) line between law and morality. Also: Should Judge Cannon be impeached?
Out of context: “For the record, Sarah, there are Mean Girls in Dune.”
Show Notes:
-J. Michael Luttig for The Atlantic against the Independent State Legislature doctrine
