There was an editorial in this morning’s New York Times that reminded me of a lecture I wanted to attend the other day put on by Professors Frank Deale and Steve Zeidman on Pottawattamie County v. McGhee, Docket No.: 08-1065 (argued Wednesday, November 4, 2009), a case now before the Supreme Court on prosecutorial misconduct. The title of the editorial piqued my interest: “Are You or Have You Ever Been a Lawyer?” Liz Cheney and now Sen. Chuck Grassley and others are trying to make an issue of current Justice Dep’t employees who represented detainees at Guantanamo prior to being appointed to DOJ.
