DOJ Access to Justice Advisor is Settling In

We covered the appointment of Harvard Law School professor and constitutional scholar extraordinaire Laurence Tribe to the U.S. Department of Justice as “Senior Counselor for Access to Justice” in an earlier news bulletin. The New York Times had a brief article yesterday discussing his role and its potential, as well as its possible limitations. DOJ is currently restricting Mr. Tribe from giving interviews, but the article features quotes from many of his friends and colleagues. This position will be an interesting one to follow in the months and years to come.
