Law Professors Impacting the Highest Court

Well, it is a great honor for a lawyer to advocate and win in the Supreme Court once in one’s career.  To win 9-0 is even more impressive.  To win twice in two weeks, well that is something.  That is also exactly what my colleague here at The Catholic University of America, Mark Rienzi, has done with today’s announcement of the Hobby Lobby case.  As was previously blogged on MOJ he argued and won 9-0 in  McCullen v. Coakley and participated in and won Hobby Lobby.  A write up of his two victories are here and here. 

Not to be outdone, my colleague Robert Destro and recent alumnus, Austin Lipari, also tasted victory in the Supreme Court.  A write up regarding their case, Susan B. Anthony List v. Driehaus, is here.
