This presentation looks at the changes in the Roberts' Court through some of the decisions of Scalia and Kennedy. Kennedy's increasing role as the swing vote in major cases takes on the mantle of a nation's moral conscience. Scalia's dissents continue to be better reading than some other justice's opinions, but in the last case of the 2007-2008 session, his opinion may redefine what constitutes a landmark case. The presentation lasts for 50 minutes with at least 10 minutes for direct questions. If you have any questions, email us at mabel@wcu.edu
