: The Volokh ConspiracyDorf on Thomas on Noriega
By Jonathan H. Adler
Michael Dorf has an interesting post explaining why he thinks Justice Thomas (joined by Justice Scalia) was correct, and most of the remaining justices wrong, to argue that the Court should have accepted certiorari in Noriega v. Pastrana. Professor Dorf concludes:
What I admire about Justice Thomas?s Noriega dissent is that he presents the legal issues without even hinting that he thinks the underlying claim is meritless. And you can be pretty sure that if I think the claim is a loser, Justice Thomas thinks so too.
