The Court is taking its time on major opinion, which gives us a moment to turn to other matters. Ethics remain in the news; the Court’s annual financial disclosures contain a number of surprises - maybe not so surprising. There’s a lot to say there, and we have some proposals to improve the situation. President Biden takes a position on a pardon, and we take a position on that. Our listeners continue to provide great input on an ongoing conversation, and we take it seriously. CLE is available after listening from podcast.njsba.com.

So often I hear and learn useful nuggets of constitutional interpretation and analysis. But this episode was a rambling exercise of rationalization. Justices Alito and Thomas have received over $4 million in influence peddling gifts. They look at Congress as too weak/divided to enforce a code of ethics to allow the public to have faith in their judicial analysis. They have been given the honor and respect of sitting on the highest court in the US and a fair salary, it should be enough.
