The George Washington Law Review is extremely excited to announce the Supreme Court’s recent citation of one of our articles in Perez v. Mortgage Bankers Association, 575 U.S. ___ (2015). The majority opinion, written by Justice Sotomayor and released March 9, 2015, cited John F. Manning, Nonlegislative Rules, 72 Geo. Wash. L. Rev. 893 (2004) on the third page of the slip opinion.
The Law Review considers this an honor of the highest order. It is the mission of a legal journal to foster scholarship that helps develop the law and in this moment, we are very proud that the collaboration of scholars and student editors at The George Washington Law Review helped contribute to the legal reasoning of the nation’s highest court.
Professor Manning wrote Nonlegislative Rules for The George Washington Law Review in 2004 when he was the Michael I. Sovern Professor of Law at Columbia Law School. Professor Manning is now the Bruce Bromley Professor of Law at Harvard Law School. We thank Professor Manning again for publishing with the Law Review, and we are very proud to share in this success with him.
