Description
The New York County Lawyers Association (NYCLA) is proud to present the latest episode of the Amicus Curiae Podcast with Host Daniel K. Wiig. Our guest is Richard William Painter, a prominent lawyer, and S. Walter Richey Professor of Corporate Law at the University of Minnesota Law School. Richard served as the chief White House ethics lawyer in the George W. Bush administration from 2005 to 2007. In the wake of the recent cloud of controversy facing United States Supreme Court Justice Alito, Justice Gorsuch, Justice Kavanaugh, Justice Roberts, and Justice Thomas, regarding a myriad of questionable activities and financial nondisclosures, which in the U.S. lower courts would violate judicial ethical standards, and have actionable recourse, Daniel sits down with Richard to get the facts and rise above the noise. Do the Supreme Court Justices of the United States need a Code of Ethics? Should the Supreme Court voluntarily submit itself to a binding code of ethical standards? If Congress imposes a Code of Ethics on the Supreme Court, does that violate the Separation of Powers? This questions and more are up for discussion in the latest episode of the NYCLA Amicus Curiae Podcast with Host Daniel K. Wiig and our guest Richard William Painter. Listen now!
