: ConglomerateOne Reason I Dislike Reading Supreme Court Opinions
By Gordon Smith, Christine, Hurt, Vic Fleischer, Fred Tung, Lisa Fairfax, David Zaring
The first sentence of Free Enterprise Fund v. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board reads: "Our Constitution divided the 'powers of the new Federal Government into three defined categories, Legislative, Executive, and Judicial.' INS v. Chadha , 462 U. S. 919, 951 (1983)."
We needed a secondary source citation for that proposition? Or maybe the Chief Justice used the quotation for the original way in which Chadha framed the idea?
One of many reasons I dislike reading Supreme Court opinions is that many of them read like they were written by law review editors.
Do you have a citation for that?
