My Current Read.

Active that is.

I am reading A Matter of Interpretation: Federal Courts and the Law by Antonin Scalia. He starts of by talking about common law. I have always heard about common law and had a general notion of what it is but this read so far has extended that knowledge.

This concept of common law is why the concept of court precedence is so important in our judicial system. This also is the focus of the current controversy on the courts.

More to follow!
