Looking back on the year’s 50 episodes, we discuss some of our best guests, including our 9th Circuit correspondent, Cory Webster, our legal-writing correspondent, Ryan McCarl, our legal-movie correspondent, Gary Wax, and our inspirational public-interest appellate lawyers Chris Schandevel and Carl Cecere. There’s our legal-citation-parenthetical maverick Jack Metzler. And then there are our legal scholars and authors Stephen Vladeck, Jeff Kosseff, and Eugene Volokh.
After talking about some great guests, we talk about some bad cases. Why don’t we talk about good cases? We discuss that, too.
We also talk about some of our takeaways from our interviews about other states’ appellate rules. We grumble about some of the rules in California, but we have some things to recommend to other states. But also some things we could learn.
Then we turn to some of the legal tech we can’t do without. Topping the list: ClearBrief (via Jackie Schafer), followed by CoCounsel.
Hope to have you along in 2024!
