#SupremeCourt Justice Elena Kagan on the late Justice John Paul Stevens: “He was an extraordinary man and an extraordinary justice.” “Every clerk he had would tell he’s the best boss they’ve ever had.” @WashLawyerspic.twitter.com/yaWBYCfB8G
“He said he tried to think every term about all things he could learn the next term.” “He was constantly thinking about what he didn’t know yet. It’s a great lesson for everybody, but especially for judges.” - #SCOTUS Justice Elena Kagan on Justice John Paul Stevens @WashLawyers
“The doctrine of precedent is one of humility.” “It’s not that you should never be able to (overrule), but it should be a high bar.” - #SCOTUS Justice Elena Kagan on stare decisis speaking with Dean Treanor at #GeorgetownLaw
“There’s no part of me that’s ever going to become accepting of the decision made.” — Justice Kagan on the #Gerrymandering decision from last term. “You write a dissent because you want to convince the future, and I guess the present, too.” @WashLawyers – at Georgetown University Law Center
"If you gave me 10 opinions and said 'Pick the author,' I'd assume I'd be pretty good,” Justice Elena Kagan says each of the current #SupremeCourt justices has his or her own unique voice.
