Current justices. We begin with the longest serving member of the court, anthony kennedy, appointed by Ronald Reagan after the failed nomination of robert pork. Confirmed unanimously in 1988, replacing and nixon appointee, Justice Lewis powell, and previoly served on the nth ciuit court of appeals. Heres a brief portion of the Justice Kennedy confirmation hearing, beginning with an introduction by robert matsui. Mr. Matsui its too bad that two individuals preceded judge kennedy for this nomination. I noticed the editorial in the New York Times this morning, they made reference to judge bork and judge ginsburg and i say its a shame because we shouldnt be here today comparing judge kennedy to his two previous nominees. Judge kennedy in and of himself is a superb candidate for the United States Supreme Court. And comparisons do not do this gentleman justice. He has a deep compassion for the law, as many of you know. Hes highly intelligent from his academic record. We can discern that. And

[inaudible conversations] good afternoon. Welcome to the Cato Institute. Its likely to receive wide because it speaks to divisions about gun control, immigration, affirmative action and so much more. But about the far more fundamental division we see in our understanding of our basic law, the constitution and what it authorizes. If we want to better understand and appreciate those service divisions, thats where we have to turn because thats where theyre grounded. And just to be clear, in speaking about republican constitution and the democratic constitution, professor barnett is not making partisan points; rather, as the books subtitle suggests, hes alluding to two fundamentally different understandings of the constitutions first three words, we the people. Profoundly different conceptions that have deep roots in our constitutional history and farreaching implications for our political order. Once we understand those basic differences, well have a far better grasp of the more immediate
Get court papers and Everything Else and nobody will give them to me. Is there a way to do that . If so, how would i go about doing it . Paul those miranda issues have to be raised immediately at the time of trial. You cannot raise them later on. It becomes too collateral to allow it on a habeas corpus or Something Like that.
