We’re running a Before They Were Stars edition of our repository highlight series with a publication by 1954 Cornell alum and future Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
The paper, appearing in the Winter 1963 edition of the Cornell Law Review, is titled “The Jury and the Namnd: Some Observations on Judicial Control of Lay Triers in Civil Proceedings in the United States and Sweden.”
Ginsburg wrote the paper while working as an Associate Director for the Columbia Law School Project on International Procedure and she spent a great deal of time studying the Swedish civil procedure system during this period, even co-authoring a book on the subject in 1965.
