The Supreme Court has come under fire after insiders revealed staffers are being told to sign formal contracts opening them to legal action if they reveal secrets.
Representatives could previously rely on informal pledges from justices based on longstanding norms — but those relaxed understandings could be at an end, an expert claimed Monday. An overhaul and fresh contract for the Supreme Court is set to come into play which, according to Jeffrey L. Fisher, co-director of the Supreme Court litigation clinic at Stanford Law School, is a sign the court is not as trusting as it once was.
Speaking to the New York Times, Fisher, a former clerk to Justice John Paul Stevens, said, “They feel under the microscope and are unwilling to rely simply on trust.”
Switching from the informal trust to formal confidentiality contracts within the Supreme Court has been branded by law professor Mark Fenster as a “sign of the court’s own weakness.”
