We filed our amicus brief last night! Click through for a link to it if you're interested in reading it. It's a brief on behalf of 5 top legal scholars explaining why Trump's appeal should be dismissed due to the bananas remedy he's seeking.

Like @hannnahmmarie, I'm tremendously proud to have been part of this team effort. What a privilege to have my name on a brief for heroes of mine like @LeahLitman, @marinklevy, @RickSwedloff, Erwin Chemerinsky, and Portia Pedro.
And what a privilege to get to work with @LeahLitman, @CecereCarl, @ssamcham, @danieltdeacon, @hannnahmmarie, and @AreebaJibril in drafting it.
Both @hannnahmmarie and @AreebaJibril deserved to be listed with @danieltdeacon and I as counsel on the brief, but couldn't be because they're not admitted yet.
Our amicus brief is just one supporting component of a much larger effort to defeat Trump's effort to wipe out the election. We're proud to have added our voices.
This team also is just one part of a broader project that started here, with this tweet, 23 crazy days ago.

Many, many of you here volunteered to help. And many of you did help, in ways small and big. Some of that work contributed directly to the brief we filed last night, some indirectly. Some fell victim to the Trump chaos.

I can't single out everyone who deserves mention, but I do want to acknowledge a few of the leaders: @seanhecht, @MooreWright05, @AthulKAcharya, @alittleleader, @cshaplaw, and @jpscasteras.
Last thing: this project and this brief were strengthened immeasurably by the work of @hannnahmmarie. If you don't know about her yet, good golly you will. She is a shimmering talent, a superstar taking shape before our eyes. I was lucky to conspire with her and learn from her.
