At the New Reform Club, Seth Barrett Tillman: Not Quite Schrödinger’s Cat—At least not yet. From the introduction:
My amicus briefs and publications (including co-authored publications) are on both sides of the parallel federal and state Trump election-law-related litigation in: People of the State of New York v. Donald J. Trump, No. 24-2299-cv (2d Cir. Nov. 6, 2025), Doc. No. 104.1, 2025 WL 3096170 (per curiam) (ordering remand); People of the State of New York v. Donald J. Trump, Indictment No. 71543-23, 86 Misc. 3d 810, 224 N.Y.S.3d 832 (N.Y. Sup. Ct. Dec. 16, 2024) (Merchan, J.), appeal filed, App. No. 2025-00648 (N.Y. App. Div. 1st Dept. notice of appeal filed: Jan. 31, 2025) (briefing ongoing).
How many law professors can say they have written on both sides of Trump-related issues? (Ed.: Ahem, um, I can.) The chances are that Trump is not right all the time nor wrong all the time. If your scholarship doesn’t reflect that, there may be something wrong with your scholarship.
