Can you imagine--a call out of the blue from AMK! Wish we knew more about how they're picked. AMK is CA9 cir.justice, right?
-
Yes, AMK is the
#CA9 circuit justice, but I don't think that was at play. More someone they know and trust, it seems. -

@jeffreynye Reminds me of the process for appointing attys to argue abandoned positions: http://bit.ly/2lKynyk (call from Alito).#SCOTUS -
Thinking about this some more, the circuit assignment may affect who makes the phone call.

Adam Mortara = fmr CT clerk; appointed as amicus in CA11 case, where CT is cir. justice. http://www.bartlit-beck.com/assets/htmldocuments/85%20USLW%20261%20Aug%2025%202016%20IP%20Trial%20Attorney%20article.pdf …

(But call came from the Clerk, it seems)
