Street Law SCOTUS Institute Day 2

Great opening activity about certiorari.  Never thought selecting cases to go before SCOTUS could be so much fun.  Ciara and boys are off to Air and Space Museum while I continue with Justice Nominations.  One of the amazing aspects of this institute are the inside connections.  Last night we had a presentation by Patty Millet who has been nominated to the DC Circuit Court of Appeals.  Today, two women who have worked in the Bush and Obama Administrations on Justice Selection.  
We finished today's session with a trip to the Supreme Court.  Two of the Court's clerks spoke with is about the process then we went to the Court room and heard from a guide.




  Ended up in the gift shop where I bought two ties. 

Back with fam, we meandered through traffic down to Baltimore for a Sox game.  Sox lost against great start by Chris Tillman.  Great fireworks show however and it was nice to see the fans lively.  

Tomorrow we do a moot court and then walk around with Ciara and the boys.
