Judges Speak


Consistent with the ABA charter "to apply the knowledge and experience of the profession to the promotion of the public good," and the latitude of Judicial Canon 4(A) to "speak, write, lecture, teach and participate in other activities concerning the law, the legal system and the administration of justice," state and federal judges have become more vocal on the consequences of the drug war on the legal system and the administration of justice. Below are views of judges that have come to our attention. We invite judges to submit published and non-published writings for inclusion on this page, and request readers to tell us of additional articles by judges that belong here.
