Courts - More on "Where Have You Gone, Sherman Minton?"

On Dec. 12, 2006, the ILB posted an entry titled "Where have you gone, Sherman Minton?" , noting that: "The ILB took a look at the paper, given that Justice Minton was a Hoosier (New Albany) and a 7th Circuit judge from 1941-49 in addition to serving as a Supreme Court justice from 1949-56." The draft paper, by profs Justin Crowe of Pomona College and Christopher F. Karpowitz of Brigham Young University, is available here via SSRN.

Today the ILB was pleased to receive via the U.S. Mail a copy of the published version of the paper, "Where have you gone, Sharman Minton? The decline of the short-term Supreme Court justice," which appeared in the latest (Sept. 2007) issue of Perspectives in Politics.
