High Court Nominee Has Left Few Communications Law Footprints

摘要

Elena Kagan, nominated Monday to the Supreme Court, has done little writing about telecommunications, media and intellectual property law, so there are few clues about how she would deal with these matters as a justice. "There really isn't much out there, and most of her articles are descriptive," said Marvin Ammori, professor at University of Nebraska College of Law. "She discusses different ideas, versus arguing, 'Here are the outcomes that should be achieved.' You can't really pin her down on which cases she approves of and which cases she doesn't."
