      But I'm still in a jam. Plaintiffs really want to exit together as a group. So I talk to a guard again. She says, go to the chief's office.

      I get pointed in a dozen different directions, all over the building. Eventually find the chief's office. Meanwhile, clock is ticking.

      The chief of the SCOTUS police, who just had to deal with an insane protester, is decompressing in his office with a bowl of ice cream.

      And in walks this dummy with a request. It's me. I tell him the plaintiffs want to walk out together, how important it is to them today.

      He says (with a mouth full of ice cream) no way. Not today. Today is nuts. I said yes sir I know, but please, this is once in a lifetime.

      I'm begging but in a very serious, professional appellate attorney way. He eventually relents, but says - when I say move, you move.

      We have just a few minutes left before the args are over. We rush back to the cafeteria, round up the plaintiffs, head toward the stairs.

      Then, at the last possible moment, the chief himself waives us up and we join the crowd as they exit the building. Seconds to spare.

      Everybody comes out the front doors together, down the stairs to cheers and celebration from the huge crowd on the street.

      That remains to this day my proudest moment in any oral argument. I convinced the chief of SCOTUS police to go out of his way for my clients
