This blog has been hit with somewhat of a dry spell recently. Time to water the plants!
Updates have been insanely sparse over the past couple weeks because I, well, had a lot to do (what else is new?). As of Thursday, Jason and I finished up a 30-page brief for the Thomas Tang Moot Court Competition. The problem involved a rather sticky issue regarding the search of a passenger compartment incident to an arrest. Jason and I represented the government, and though the law generally tends to favor the government on these issues, we were struggling to come up with slam dunk arguments. Still, I think it was a decent showing. We’ll see what happens.
As of this afternoon, (I think) the first revisions on my law review article are complete. I actually made quite a few substantive changes; cutting sections, adding support for others, and sort of reworking the overall organization. I think it’s stronger now, although we’ll see what the editors have to say. I also started source and cite-checking (part of my duties as a Research & Technical editor) an interesting article about the Seattle monorail project and whether it presents taxation without representation issues. Should be an interesting article — look for it the next issue of the Seattle University Law Review (along with my article, hopefully).
Work has been great, but super busy. No surprises there. Now that the “bulk” of my article revisions are out of the way, my summer should begin settling at a slightly more rational workload.
That about does it for now! Oh, one last thing — I uploaded pictures from my two-day trip to New York on the way to Rich’s wedding. They’re in the gallery right now. After I hear back from Rich, I’ll also have pictures from the wedding uploaded. Stay tuned!
Thank you, your honor.
