Speaking of the Supreme Court, the Loop 2009 Legal Citation of the Year goes to Justice Antonin Scalia, writing in dissent to Monday's ruling that state court judges may be obliged to recuse themselves from a case if they've received large campaign contributions from one of the litigants. Scalia wrote that a 'Talmudic maxim instructs with respect to the Scripture: `Turn it over, and turn it over, for all is therein.' The Babylonian Talmud, Tractate Aboth, Ch. V, Mishnah 22 (I. Epstein ed. 1935.)' Scalia, we seem to recall, hasn't been a big fan of international law, but as Richard Hasen, an election law expert at Loyola Law School in Los Angeles, opined, he doesn't 'mind citing foreign law, so long as it is a few thousand years old.' Well, it hasn't been overturned.
