Advisory Opinions
About
Sarah Isgur and David French invite former D.C. Circuit judges Tom Griffith and David Tatel to discuss relationships, judicial independence, and what it means to be a “former” judge. But first, bar complaints and the White House ballroom injunction.
The Agenda:
–The worst of the worst, District Judge edition
–Someone file a bar complaint!
–We’re the least surprised when the White House injunction came down
–Disagreeing respectfully
–What’s next for judges after they retire?
–Breaking news
