In Oxford—it’s absolutely beautiful but too bad this visit coincides with a very unpleasant heat wave. Look forward to my talk tomorrow

Really interesting--a comparative project putting the Guarantee Clause of the U.S. Constitution in conversation with Article 2 of the Treaty on the EU, especially in light of the latter's recent "awakening" in the jurisprudence of the CJEU: academic.oup.com/ajcl/advance...

For those interested in statutory interpretation (who isn’t), there is a long exchange on the use of legislative history in one of today’s #SCOTUS opinions. The cocktail party quip and Holy Trinity are both mentioned. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

A friend who works for the Bank of England is pitching to Lego a very cool model of the Bank--please consider supporting him here: beta.ideas.lego.com/product-idea...

Haven't seen discussion about what the Court's recent decision in Rutherford portends for the post-Loper Bright landscape. Seems majority doubles down on rejection of deference in any form, while dissent draws on one of the "delegation" loopholes www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

Excited to present at Oxford later this semester, as part of an impressive series with other very impressive scholars... please join if you're around :)

Tomorrow!

Published. In Lieu of the NLRA. Still very much a project in progress. Tell me what you think! papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Prof. András Jakab, judge of the ECHR, on Zachary Price's book, Constitutional Symmetry: "My overall impressions of the book are excellent. It is short, but filled with a great deal of wisdom. It is actually one of the best books I have read in the last ten years." academic.oup.com/icon/advance...

A great panel celebrating Mark Tushnet and the latest edited collection in his honor, Redefining Comparative Constitutional Law, featuring Mark, Vicki Jackson & Madhav Khosla. Highly recommended--watch it while it's hot! www.youtube.com/watch?v=9XE2...

Has US administrative law gone through a process of "Europeanization" ? Conversely, has European administrative law been "Americanized"? In a little paper, just published by the European Central Bank, my coauthor & I try to answer these questions. www.ecb.europa.eu/press/legcon...

Tip for ad law teachers, especially junior like me: I assume many are potentially struggling with how to teach the subject of "non-APA adjudications" in a way that helps students see the major stakes of the issue. Here's what I've done last year, following Nick Parrillo

🚨@nicholasbednar.bsky.social and I have a new article titled Commission Quorums. In light of firings rendering the NLRB and MSPB quorum-less, we review caselaw, common law principles, and the quorum rules of 76 commissions to understand the law of quorums. 1/ papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....
