Originally published by Josh Blackman.
We have a new record. During oral arguments in Gill v. Whitford, Justice Breyer entertained Wisconsin Solicitor General with a fifty-seven line “Breyer Page.” By my count, the previous record was fifty-one lines in United States v. Texas. (There may be a discrepancy in measuring lines, as the Court switched reporting companies from Alderson to Heritage).
Perhaps conscious of his loquaciousness, Justice Breyer promised that his question would last “exactly 30 seconds.” I estimate that the question lasted about three minutes.
And always, the Breyer pages end with (Laughter.).
