Professor Moss Part of White House Press Conference Call

Professor Scott Moss was invited to be one of five legal experts on a conference call the White House organized today to brief, and field questions from, several dozen reporters on the Supreme Court Nomination of Judge Sonia Sotomayor. This was the first time in recent history that the White House press office arranged for nongovernment officials to brief reporters. The other four legal experts included Harvard Law Professor Martha Minow, Paul Smith, a partner at the firm Jenner & Block, University of North Carolina School of Law Professor William Marshall, Kevin Russell, a partner at Howe & Russell and an author of the influential SCOTUSblog.
