Mirroring the Justices’ Styles
Writing Style is clearly important to the Supreme Court Justices. Not only are the justices cognizant of the writing styles in briefs, but they are also attuned to the writing styles of other judges and justices. Justices past and present discussed this and other matters in interviews with legal writing specialist Bryan Garner for the Scribes Journal over a decade ago. Some of the key takeaways…

Finer Words..."Tense Present"
Finer Words…”Tense Present”
I received Bryan A. Garner’s new book, Nino and Me: My Unusual Friendship with Justice Antonin Scaliatoday. As I have examined this book as I do most books I receive, I read the inside cover, the table of contents, the dedication, and the acknowledgements. In this brief perusal, I have learned of the friendship Bryan Garner, David Foster Wallace and Justice Antonin Scalia. Also, in this…

Bryan Garner, on David Foster Wallace
David Foster Wallace: One of the things that college drummed into me is, "Welcome to the adult world. It doesn't care about you. You want it to? Make it. Make it care." Bryan A Garner: So readers are essentially selfish, or at least self-interested, and they need to get something out of the writing. Is that part of it? David Foster Wallace: I certainly don't talk to students that way. What I talk about is that one of the things that's good about writing and practicing writing is it's a great remedy for my natural self-involvement and self-centeredness. Right? "I am the center of my own world, my thoughts and feelings are more immediate, therefore..." [Students] start realizing that really learning how to write effectively is, in fact, probably more of a matter of spirit than it is of intellect. And the spirit means I never forget there's someone on the end of the line, that I owe that person certain allegiances, that I'm sending that person all kinds of messages, only some of which have to do with the actual content of what it is I'm trying to say.

Describers vs. Prescribers: Reaching a Linguistic Common Ground
When I published The Power of Six, my first collection of short stories, a reviewer said that the book had grammatical errors, albeit small ones. This shocked me, as the book had been professionally edited and proof-read. So, I reached out and asked her for an example. “You start a sentence with a gerund,” she said. “So?” I asked. “So, that’s wrong.”
I was baffled by this. Surely, that’s a matter…

Trials Then & Now
Trials Then & Now
Thomas Hobbes famously proclaimed in Leviathan that “Where there is no common power, there is no law, where no law, no injustice…No arts; no letters; no society; and which is worst of all, continual fear, and danger of violent death: and the life of man, solitary, poor, nasty, brutish and short.”
Just as life pre-law was nasty, brutish, and short. So were trials pre-18th century. Trials in the…
