At my sub-blog, I have begun a series of analyses of significant cases in U.S. Supreme Court history. If you’re interested, please drop by and peruse my gloss on Marbury v. Madison. (I described my ambitions for this project about a week ago and was surprised at the level of interest.) This is likely to be the longest of the posts on the individual project, but given the subject matter, I think that’s appropriate. Enjoy!
