The articles address a wide range of topics, but they are all tied to appellate practice in some way.”

  • A case for terminating the United States Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces. 
  • The courts’ power to recall mandate. 
  • Do better briefs and oral arguments impact how the justices vote? 
  • What trial judges want to see (and don’t want to see) in appellate opinions. 
  • How to write a reply brief 
  • Two reviews of University of Arizona Law Professors books: Tessa Dysart’s The Short and Happy Guide to Judicial Clerkship and Diana Simon’s book, The (Not Too Serious) Grammar, Punctuation, and Style Guide to Legal Writing
