Amici

[edit]

I think amici rarely merit mention in WP entries of this sort. Most -- not all -- are PR exercises of little use to the courts. I saw an interview with Justice Ginsburg once where she was asked if amici were useful and her answer was something like: I shouldn't say never.....but no. Yet I bet she filed a few back in the day and Boudin in his recent Gill decision thanked amici for their briefs. In this instance, the participation of many businesses is, I think noteworthy, that of the cities and law firms less so, those of House Democrats and Senate Republicans not at all. For 2 former AGs to speak up adds something to the reader's understanding of the politicization of the DOJ. Etc. I just hope we don't start adding them without stopping to ask whether each is new or noteworthy.

See, for example, the list of amici on behalf of the plaintiffs in Gill here. Many are identical to those filing now in Golinski and what they file has hardly changed from a few months ago.Bmclaughlin9 (talk) 20:28, 12 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
