Chemerinsky visits San Diego

Erwin Chemerinsky is a dude. The law professor/Constitutional scholar/UC Irvine law dean visited San Diego on Friday, as reported in this interesting article.

One funny comment he made -- he thinks U.S. Supreme Court opinions should have word and page limits! That'll be the day! He makes a good point, the Court hears fewer cases these days, but their opinions are getting longer and longer. A page limit would let the court hear more cases....

It's no big deal when pseudoanonymous blawgers criticize the Court. It's always inspiring when high profile people do so publicly. I guess that's why Chemerinsky almost wasn't UC Irvine Law's dean -- he's polarizing.
