Despite the mounting demands of the public, the media, and world religious leaders that Coleman's conviction be reexamined, the courts refused to consider new evidence because of a lawyer's mistake: years earlier, an appointed lawyer had filed a document one day late.

Ten years later, the sentence was carried out, despite the extraordinary efforts of Kitty Behan, a brilliant and dedicated young lawyer who devoted two years of her life to gathering evidence of Coleman's innocence, evidence so compelling that media around the world came to question the verdict. The courts, ruling on technicalities, refused to hear the new evidence and witnesses.

This effort to reinforce the separation of powers and limit government succeeded in many ways, but it created new threats to judicial independence and provoked further calls for reform. Merit selection emerged as the most promising means of reducing partisan and financial influence from judicial selection. It too, however, proved vulnerable to pressure from party politics and special interest groups. Yet, as Shugerman concludes, it still has more potential for protecting judicial independence than either political appointment or popular election. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe People's Courts \u003c\/i\u003eshows how Americans have been deeply committed to judicial independence, but that commitment has also been manipulated by special interests.

Through a detailed reading of Derrida's texts, Jacques de Ville contends that it is only by way of Derrida's deconstruction of the metaphysics of presence, and specifically in relation to the texts of Husserl, Levinas, Freud and Heidegger - that the reasoning behind his elusive works on law and justice can be grasped.

Derrida is shown to be neither a postmodernist nor a political liberal, but a radical revolutionary. De Ville also controversially contends that justice in Derrida's thinking must be radically distinguished from Levinas's reflections on 'the other'. It is the notion of absolute hospitality - which Derrida derives from Levinas, but radically transforms - that provides the basis of this argument. Justice must on De Ville's reading be understood in terms of a demand of absolute hospitality which is imposed on both the individual and the collective subject.

As originalist thinking has evolved, it has become clear that there is a family of originalist theories, some emphasizing the intent of the framers, while others focus on the original public meaning of the constitutional text. This idea has enjoyed a modern resurgence, in good part in reaction to the assumption of more sweeping power by the judiciary, operating in the name of constitutional interpretation. Those arguing for a \"living Constitution\" that keeps up with a changing world and changing values have resisted originalism. This difference in legal philosophy and jurisprudence has, since the 1970s, spilled over into party politics and the partisan wrangling over court appointments from appellate courts to the Supreme Court.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eConstitutional Originalism\u003c\/i\u003e, Robert W.

In a thorough exploration of the range of contemporary views on originalism, the authors articulate and defend sharply contrasting positions. Solum brings learning from the philosophy of language to his argument in favor of originalism, and Bennett highlights interpretational problems in the dispute-resolution context, describing instances in which a living Constitution is a more feasible and productive position. The book explores those contrasting positions, to be sure, but also uncovers important points of agreement for the interpretational enterprise. This provocative and absorbing book ends with a bibliographic essay that points to landmark works in the field and helps lay readers and students orient themselves within the literature of the debate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRobert W.

This interdisciplinary collection provides alternative perspectives to the 'antistatism' of much critical writing and contemporary political movement activism. Contributors explore ways of reimagining the state that attend critically to the capitalist, neoliberal, gendered and racist conditions of contemporary polities, yet seek to hold onto the state in the process. Drawing on postcolonial, poststructuralist, feminist, queer, Marxist and anarchist thinking, they consider how states might be reread and reclaimed for radical politics. At the heart of this book is state plasticity - the capacity of the state conceptually and materially to take different forms. This plasticity is central to transformational thinking and practice, and to the conditions and labour that allow it to take place.

Analysis of these decisions is also supplemented by in-depth interviews with judges, lawyers and other important stakeholders in the judicial processes.

Creative positivism is a legal philosophy that is an extension of H.L.A. Hart's legal positivist theory presented in his classic work The Concept of Law. Moskowitz identifies 'hard' cases that do not fit easily into Hart's rule of recognition; cases in which there are gaps, open texture or penumbral factual situations. He then modifies Hart's version of the discretionary theory that limits the exercise of discretion in making judicial decisions. The author is in a unique position to do so thanks to his having studied under Hart at Oxford, providing the latter at his request with a critique of the The Concept of Law while it was still in draft form. He demonstrates through the creative positivist theory how discretion is exercised in 'easy' cases too, where the law is determinate. In so doing, Moskowitz adds to Hart's primary and secondary rules a new set of tertiary rules.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Judge and the Umpire springs from a reaction against a supreme court judge's direct attempt to assimilate the two roles in his inaugural speech.

It has also made her privy to many significant, little-known secrets about Supreme Court personalities and their historical behaviors.\" - The National Book Review\r\n\r\n\"Biskupic, an accomplished and well-sourced journalist, knows the court as well as anyone now covering it... In her new book Biskupic has done something different and a good deal harder. She has written a group narrative that combines close accounts of the court's public business in the Trump years with a history of its private dramas and conflicts... The deeper message of 'Nine Black Robes' is that even with a new president in office we remain captive to the Age of Trump... A quiet urgency ripples through this informative, briskly paced and gracefully written book.\" - New York Times Book Review\r\n\r\n\"Biskupic opens a window onto the opaque, insular world of the justices to show an institution sinking gradually into crisis . . .

The book reveals unseen sausage-making . . .\" - Wall Street Journal\r\n\r\nNine Black Robes displays the inner maneuverings among the Supreme Court justices that led to the seismic reversal of Roe v. Wade and a half century of women's abortion rights. Biskupic details how rights are stripped away or, alternatively as in the case of gun owners, how rights are expanded. Today's bench--with its conservative majority--is desperately ideological. The Court has been headed rightward and ensnared by its own intrigues for years, but the Trump appointments hastened the modern transformation. With unparalleled access to key players, Biskupic shows the tactics of each justice and reveals switched votes and internal pacts that typically never make the light of day, yet will have repercussions for generations to come.\r\n\r\nNine Black Robes is the definitive narrative of the country's highest court and its profound impact on all Americans.\r\n\r\nAbout the Author\r\nJOAN BISKUPIC is CNN's Senior Supreme Court Analyst.

The Structure and Function of Federal and State Courts. The Administrative Office of the United States Courts. Explanation of the Federal Court System how it works, its functions and responsibilities. Why Two Court Systems? The Judicial Branch has two court systems: federal and state. While each hears certain types of cases, neither is completely independent of the other. The two systems often interact and share the goal of fairly handling legal issues. The U.S. Constitution created a governmental structure known as federalism that calls for the sharing of powers between the national and state governments. The Constitution gives certain powers to the federal government and reserves the rest for the states. The federal court system deals with legal issues expressly or implicitly granted to it by the U.S. Constitution. The state court systems deal with their respective state constitutions and the legal issues that the U.S. Constitution did not give to the federal government or explicitly deny to the states. For example, because the Constitution gives Congress sole authority to make uniform laws concerning bankruptcies, a state court would lack jurisdiction. Likewise, since the Constitution does not give the federal government authority in most family law matters, a federal court would lack jurisdiction in a divorce case. The federal judiciary is one of three equal but distinct branches of the federal government.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 78\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.16 x 9.02 x 5.98 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 27, 2016\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52777226142029,"sku":"9781532946738","price":25.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0927\/3304\/7117\/files\/YkdCV0lwd3B3REEvRjVTMzNCWVdjdz09.webp?v=1763157111"},{"product_id":"constitutional-originalism-a-debate-paperback","title":"Constitutional Originalism: A Debate - Paperback","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/reportcopyrightinfringement.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eReport copyright infringement\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eby \u003cb\u003eRobert W.

As originalist thinking has evolved, it has become clear that there is a family of originalist theories, some emphasizing the intent of the framers, while others focus on the original public meaning of the constitutional text. This idea has enjoyed a modern resurgence, in good part in reaction to the assumption of more sweeping power by the judiciary, operating in the name of constitutional interpretation. Those arguing for a \"living Constitution\" that keeps up with a changing world and changing values have resisted originalism. This difference in legal philosophy and jurisprudence has, since the 1970s, spilled over into party politics and the partisan wrangling over court appointments from appellate courts to the Supreme Court.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eConstitutional Originalism\u003c\/i\u003e, Robert W. Bennett and Lawrence B. Solum elucidate the two sides of this debate and mediate between them in order to separate differences that are real from those that are only apparent. In a thorough exploration of the range of contemporary views on originalism, the authors articulate and defend sharply contrasting positions. Solum brings learning from the philosophy of language to his argument in favor of originalism, and Bennett highlights interpretational problems in the dispute-resolution context, describing instances in which a living Constitution is a more feasible and productive position. The book explores those contrasting positions, to be sure, but also uncovers important points of agreement for the interpretational enterprise. This provocative and absorbing book ends with a bibliographic essay that points to landmark works in the field and helps lay readers and students orient themselves within the literature of the debate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRobert W.

The detective work of historian Valerie Horowitz in identifying the essays and the preface by Yale's celebrated law librarian the late Morris Cohen goes to show that antebellum legal history is still rich soil. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTalbot Publishing has done a signal service in ensuring continued attention to Justice Story's foundational essays - which were the precursor to the modern law reform work of the American Law Institute and the Conference of Uniform State Law Commissioners.\"--RUTH WEDGWOOD, Edward Burling Professor of International Law, Johns Hopkins University \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"In this handsome volume, we have for the first time a reader-friendly edition of Joseph Story's little-known essays on American law published anonymously in Francis Lieber's Encyclopedia Americana. With the late Morris L. Cohen's learned introduction to guide us, we can detect, even more clearly than in his judicial opinions, the intellectual foundations of Story's jurisprudence. Written in plain English for laymen and professionals alike, the essays attest to Story's almost religious belief that only scientific law could save the republic from impending chaos.\"-- R.

Brewer-Carias\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book deals with Judicial Review, as the power of judges to control the constitutionality of State acts, particularly of Legislation, which not only is the most important subject of contemporary constitutional law, but also the most distinctive feature of all democratic constitutional systems. Such power is the consequence of the consolidation in contemporary constitutionalism of three fundamental principles of law: first, the existence of a written constitution or of a fundamental law, conceived as a superior law with clear supremacy over all other statutes; second, the \"rigid\" character of such constitution, which implies that the amendments or reforms that may be introduced can only be put into practice by means of a particular and special constituent process, preventing the ordinary legislator from doing so; and third, the establishment in that same written and rigid constitution or fundamental law, of the judicial means for guaranteeing its supremacy, over all other state acts, including legislative acts. According to such principles, consequently, in democratic systems subjected to the rule of law, the judges can have the power to refuse to enforce a statute when they deem it to be contrary to the Constitution, considering it null or void with inter partes effects, through what is known as the \"American model\" or the diffuse system of judicial review; or one particular Constitutional Court or the Supreme Court of the country can be empowered to annul laws considered unconstitutional, with erga omnes effects, through what is known as the \" European model\" or concentrated system of judicial review; with the possibility for both system to coexist, through what is known as the \" Latin American model\" or the mixed system of judicial review. These systems are analyzed in this book from a comparative constitutional law perspective, a matter that professor Brewer-Carias has been studying for the past decades, and on which he has extensively published in books and articles, in Spanish, French and English. But in addition, he has written many works and essays in English, that have not been published up to now, in particular for the preparation of Courses and Lectures he has given as was the case of the Course of Lectures on \"Judicial Review in Comparative Law,\" he gave in the LL.M. Course at the Faculty of Law, University of Cambridge, UK., in 1985-1986; and the Lectures he gave on \"Judicial Protection of Human Rights in Latin America. A Comparative Constitutional Law Study on the Latin American Injunction for the protection of Constitutional Rights (\"Amparo proceeding\"),\" at Columbia Law School in the City of New York, in 2006-2008. The original versions of these Lectures are published in this book, altogether with many other Papers, Reports and Lectures he has given in the past years in various Universities in the United States, analyzing from a comparative constitutional Law perspective, the systems of judicial review in the world, and in particular, in Latin America. The decision to publish this book with the recollection of the original versions of all those works, as the author has pointed out, has the purpose to assure that all those materials won't be lost, and could be useful for all those who have interest in these matters; being what they are: the written work of a law professor, made as a consequence of his research for the preparation of his lectures, not pretending to be anything else.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1198\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.34 x 9.61 x 6.69 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 30, 2014\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52777226436941,"sku":"9789803652128","price":106.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0927\/3304\/7117\/files\/WE1rbmZwSFN5MEdmeEpxc1BCTDM3QT09.webp?v=1763157112"},{"product_id":"secret-corruption-hardcover","title":"Secret Corruption - Hardcover","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/reportcopyrightinfringement.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eReport copyright infringement\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eby \u003cb\u003eScott Wallis\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"This book will refresh and revive you to the beginning stages of a new revolution \" JEREMY LOPEZ, D.D.

It is no wonder that habeas corpus has long been considered essential to freedom. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFor nearly eight hundred years, the writ of habeas corpus has limited the executive in the Anglo-American legal tradition from imprisoning citizens and subjects with impunity. Writing in the eighteenth century, the widely influential English jurist and commentator William Blackstone declared the writ a \"bulwark\" of personal liberty. Across the Atlantic, in the leadup to the American Revolution, the Continental Congress declared that the habeas privilege and the right to trial by jury were among the most important rights in a free society. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis \u003cem\u003eVery Short Introduction\u003c\/em\u003e chronicles the storied writ of habeas corpus and how its common law and statutory origins spread from England throughout the British Empire and beyond, witnessing its use today around the world in nations as varied as Canada, Israel, India, and South Korea. Beginning with the English origins of the writ, the book traces its historical development both as a part of the common law and as a parliamentary creation born out of the English Habeas Corpus Act of 1679, a statute that so dramatically limited the executive's power to detain that Blackstone called it no less than a \"second \u003cem\u003eMagna Carta.\u003c\/em\u003e\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe book then takes the story forward to explore how the writ has functioned in the centuries since, including its controversial suspension by President Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War. It also analyzes the major role habeas corpus has played in such issues as the World War II incarceration of Japanese Americans and the US Supreme Court's recognition during the War on Terror of the concept of a \"citizen enemy combatant.\" Looking ahead the story told in these pages reveals the immense challenges that the habeas privilege faces today and suggests that in confronting them, we would do well to remember how the habeas privilege brought even the king of England to his knees before the law.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAmanda L.

Drawing on theories and techniques from psychology, it focuses on the content analysis of judgments and uses a novel methodology to reveal the values that underpin decision making. The book centres on cases which divide judicial opinion: Dworkin's hard cases 'in which the result is not clearly dictated by statute or precedent'. In hard cases, there is real uncertainty about the legal rules that should be applied, and factors beyond traditional legal sources may influence the decision-making process. It is in these uncertain cases - where legal developments can rest on a single judicial decision - that values are revealed in the judgments. The findings in this book have significant implications for developments in law, judicial decision making and the appointment of the judiciary.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRachel Cahill-O'Callaghan is Senior Lecturer in Law at Cardiff University\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 232\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.49 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 26, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52777226862925,"sku":"9781509954766","price":88.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0927\/3304\/7117\/files\/MkZkMkwvS0pIZCtKbGM1TW8rSkVSQT09.webp?v=1763157114"},{"product_id":"judging-and-emotion-a-socio-legal-analysis-paperback","title":"Judging and Emotion: A Socio-Legal Analysis - Paperback","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/reportcopyrightinfringement.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eReport copyright infringement\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eby \u003cb\u003eSharyn Roach Anleu\u003c\/b\u003e (Author), \u003cb\u003eKathy Mack\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eJudging and Emotion\u003c\/em\u003e investigates how judicial officers understand, experience, display, manage and deploy emotions in their everyday work, in light of their fundamental commitment to impartiality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eJudging and Emotion\u003c\/em\u003e challenges the conventional assumption that emotion is inherently unpredictable, stressful or a personal quality inconsistent with impartiality. Extensive empirical research with Australian judicial officers demonstrates the ways emotion, emotional capacities and emotion work are integral to judicial practice. Judging and Emotion articulates a broader conception of emotion, as a social practice emerging from interaction, and demonstrates how judicial officers undertake emotion work and use emotion as a resource to achieve impartiality. A key insight is that institutional requirements, including conceptions of impartiality as dispassion, do not completely determine the emotion dimensions of judicial work. Through their everyday work, judicial officers construct and maintain the boundaries of an impartial judicial role which necessarily incorporates emotion and emotion work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuilding on a growing interest in emotion in law and social sciences, this book will be of considerable importance to socio-legal scholars, sociologists, the judiciary, legal practitioners and all users of the courts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSharyn Roach Anleu\u003c\/strong\u003e is \u003ci\u003eMatthew Flinders Distinguished Professor, Judicial Research Project, \u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eCollege of Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences at Flinders University, Adelaide, Australia\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKathy Mack is \u003ci\u003eEmerita Professor of Law, Judicial Research Project, College of Business, Government and Law at Flinders University, Adelaide, Australia\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 214\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.48 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 24, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52777226895693,"sku":"9780367678685","price":101.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0927\/3304\/7117\/files\/RVZseklKZ1hRSDNTaCtxeHBDYVlEUT09.webp?v=1763157113"},{"product_id":"the-unusual-story-of-the-pocket-veto-case-1926-1929-paperback","title":"The Unusual Story of the Pocket Veto Case, 1926-1929 - Paperback","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/reportcopyrightinfringement.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eReport copyright infringement\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eby \u003cb\u003eJonathan Lurie\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAccording to the US Constitution, if a bill is not returned to Congress by the president within ten days of receiving it and Congress has adjourned, the bill is effectively vetoed.

These values include independence, impartiality, integrity, propriety, equality, competence and diligence. These core values, commonly referred to as 'Bangalore Principles of Judicial Conduct' were agreed upon by the Judicial Integrity Group in Bangalore, India, in February 2001. In 2003, the United Nations Human Rights Commission (UNHRC) endorsed the above principles, considered amongst common and civil law jurisdictions as the authoritative statement on the values that should inform judicial conduct.Judges must be independent and impartial. Independence means a judge should not take any instructions from anyone or be influenced in any way in determining any matter by anyone. Impartiality means that a judge should treat the parties before him equally, providing them with equal opportunity to say their side of the story. He should have no personal interest in the outcome of the case.Every judge is a product of his time. It is through this prism that his objectivity must be assessed and critiqued. The purpose of objectivity is to be dispassionate. This objectivity is not always easy, but it is attainable.Similarly, the primary function of a judge is to dispense justice. It has always been a revered principle of liberty and freedom that judges are no respecters of persons but the Law, ever vigilant to ensure that any governmental action is justified. Today's judge is required to give effect to the values of a pluralistic society that cherishes democracy, human rights, tolerance and diversity. This book exemplifies these values.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 362\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.81 x 7.99 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 10, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52777226961229,"sku":"9781648288654","price":30.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0927\/3304\/7117\/files\/sTe8JocwyM9781648288654.webp?v=1763157114"},{"product_id":"the-scheme-how-the-right-wing-used-dark-money-to-capture-the-supreme-court-hardcover","title":"The Scheme: How the Right Wing Used Dark Money to Capture the Supreme Court - Hardcover","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/reportcopyrightinfringement.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eReport copyright infringement\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eby \u003cb\u003eSheldon Whitehouse\u003c\/b\u003e (Author), \u003cb\u003eJennifer Mueller\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\"A damning investigation of dark money by a senior member of the Senate Judiciary Committee.\" (\u003cem\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/em\u003e) with a new preface on recent disclosures about efforts to influence the Court\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e\"There's no senator I can think of who's done more sleuthing to figure out the money trail in American politics, particularly as it affects the courts.\"-Jane Mayer, author of the national bestseller \u003cem\u003eDark Money\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs the story breaks of a secretive cabal of extreme religious zealots who waged a stealth campaign to ingratiate themselves with \"amenable\" Supreme Court justices-who in turn leaked draft decisions to them-the paperback version of \u003cem\u003eThe Scheme\u003c\/em\u003e comes at a time of crisis for the American judiciary.\u003cp\u003eFollowing his book \u003cem\u003eCaptured\u003c\/em\u003e on corporate capture of regulatory and government agencies, and his years of experience as a prosecutor, Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, called \"a powerful voice in defending our American democracy against the relentless, pervasive-and often hidden-power of corporate special interests\" by Senator Elizabeth Warren, here turns his attention to the right-wing scheme to capture the United States Supreme Court.

The system has become more centralized, with state legislators and federal judges given increasing power.
