About David Lat

What is Original Jurisdiction?

Original Jurisdiction offers incisive, fair-minded, and occasionally entertaining commentary about law and the legal profession. As the legal industry expands, it's vital to provide insight into its often insular worlds. I strive to be fair-minded and civil, respecting all perspectives, even with my own biases.
