The style manual that guides the brief-writing of the U.S. solicitor general's office has been published for the first time, as we reported in Monday's edition of Supreme Court Brief, NLJ's subscription newsletter on the nation's highest court. We also covered the court's action Monday on National Security Agency telephone surveillance and a New York federal judge's requirement that the legal team in a class action case reflect the racial and gender makeup of the class. An interview with Stanford Law School professor Joseph Grundfest on the court's latest move that could cripple securities class actions rounds out the issue.
In last Wednesday's edition of the newsletter, we reported on arguments in a key labor relations case, and profiled Brian Matsui of Morrison & Foerster.
