Visualizing the #SCOTUS #BreyerPages

April 6th, 2016

Steven Vaughn (@), a Georgetown Law Center Student, created visualizations to illustrate just how long Justice Breyer’s monologues are during the #BreyerPages. In short, SGB is taking up a significant amount of advocates time with his long-winded soliloquies. For example, in Zubik, Justice Breyer’s nearly-four-minute-long statement took up nearly 15% of Paul Clement’s (already reduced) time!
