DJ appellate columns

In today's DJ Appellate Zealots column, Ben Feuer offers When the High Court DIGs Your Dreams, about when SCOTUS dismisses a case as improvidently granted. He describes how this happened in the Visa case because the petitioner changed arguments from the cert petition in the merits briefing. The lesson: "Dance with the one that brung ya."

Moskovitz on Appeals presents Know What the Box Is Before You Think Outside of It, in which he considers how foreign legal systems contrast with our own.
