John Marshall And Felix Frankfurter: An Icon And A Disappointment?, William E. Nelson
John Marshall And Felix Frankfurter: An Icon And A Disappointment?, William E. Nelson
Touro Law Review
This article shows how Chief Justice John Marshall first developed the doctrine of judicial restraint in Marbury v.

A Passion For Justice, Charles A. Reich
Touro Law Review
What makes a good judge or justice? The public has a need to know. But simplistic labels, such as "activist," "liberal" and "conservative," are both meaningless and misleading. Perhaps aformer law clerk can offer a different perspective.
