Dec. 17, 2004 -- A professor at the
University of Utah S.J. Quinney College of Law is among the nominees
for the 20 top legal thinkers in America.
Professor and Federal District Court Judge Paul G. Cassell is among
the 125 academics, judges, writers, and commentators who have been
selected by Legal Affairs magazine. The public is invited to vote
online before March 1, 2005, for their top five, plus a favorite
who is not on the list. On its Web site, the magazine, which is
published by Yale University Law School, says it wants to know “who
you think are the country's most influential and important legal
thinkers—the ones whose ideas are pushing the law forward
(or backward, as the case may be).”
The magazine emphasizes that it’s a poll, not a scientific
ranking. “We won't take the results too seriously and trust
you won't either, but we hope that you’ll participate and
vote.” For further information or to vote, visit http://legalaffairs.org/poll/.
