It was such a pleasure to host the 10th(!) annual Civil Procedure Workshop here at Richmond! Such great papers and discussions & so delightful to have a great cohort of fellows and junior scholars in the midst sharing their work!

Having had the pleasure of reading many iterations of this book, I can attest that it’s fabulous! @athenais.bsky.social illuminates many ways the law treats those at the high- and low-end of the wealth spectrum differently and, in doing so, teaches us new things abt the architecture of inequality.

As always, insightful and interesting work by the one and only @marissaesque.bsky.social!

🚨🚨 Registration is now open for the 10th Civil Procedure Workshop at Richmond on June 2-3. Sign up at the link below!

Every year, when I teach civil rights litigation, my students are confronted with & confront me questions about what civil rights suits can actually accomplish. This essay is my answer. It's a very early draft & I'd welcome your suggestions, additions & stories. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Now on SSRN: My new project with Helen Hershkoff, The Beleaguered Sovereign: Judicial Restrains on Public Enforcement. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Today, @lukenorris.bsky.social, Helen Hershkoff, and Judith Resnik kick off a series on civil procedure -- an area of law that is, they explain, "political economy all the way down." Look forward to posts from Kathryn Sabbeth, Brooke Coleman, and Danya Reda! lpeproject.org/blog/procedu...

Had a blast guest lecturing in @MyriamGilles10’s Critical Civil Procedure class today! We discussed the Oligarchic Courthouse, my recent piece with Helen Hershkoff, and took a deep dive into jurisdiction, procedural reform, and the role of courts in our political economy.

Delighted to receive the news this morning that the ink is dry & I’ve been promoted to professor of law with tenure! I owe such a debt of gratitude to so many folks at Richmond Law and in the legal academic community. 🙏 😊

Excited to see this out in the wild as well — it was a lot of fun to write!

Honored and humbled to have received the AALS Civil Procedure section’s inaugural Junior Scholarship Award for my paper, The Promise and Perils of Private Enforcement. Thanks so much to the committee!

Not a bad first post, I guess: I’m delighted that my fantastic colleagues voted to promote me to professor of law with tenure. The past several years have been deeply rewarding. I’m so grateful for my mentors and friends here, and in the civil procedure, labor & employment, and LPE communities.
