Download or read book Oral Argument and Amicus Curiae written by Matthew M.C. Roberts and published by LFB Scholarly Publishing. This book was released on 2014-05-14 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Members of the Supreme Court are supposed to base decisions on the law, but often their choices are better explained by political ideology and party loyalty. Roberts sheds light on this problem by looking at a part of the CourtOCOs life that has never been systematically studied. Most cases feature extra briefs written by third parties known as amici curiae. He examines the rare occasions on which the Court allows these extra groups to participate not just by filing briefs but by appearing before the Court during oral arguments. By tracing how these groups influence the justicesOCO behavior, Roberts presents a strong case that the Court is driven by more than politics."

Download or read book First among Friends written by Suzanne U. Samuels and published by Praeger. This book was released on 2004-09-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last several decades, there has been an explosion in the number of amici curiae, or friend of the Court, briefs filed with the U.S. Supreme Court. Amici are not formal parties to a lawsuit, but file to help inform the Justices about the wider repercussions of the case before them. Public law scholars have long discussed whether these briefs have an impact on the Justices. This book is the first study that seeks to assess the extent of amici influence. This work examines the role of interest groups in the creation and interpretation of the right to privacy, a highly controversial right that derived almost entirely from case law. It looks at amici participation in abortion, aid in dying, family relationships, and anti-sodomy cases. This volume tracks the influence of amici arguments and data on the Justices' handling of these cases.
