Amicus brief for University of Mississippi faculty in a First Amendment appeal

Filed on behalf of three University of Mississippi faculty members, supporting the appeal of a university employee fired over a social media post. The brief sets out the university’s own history of suppressing speech on matters of public concern, and argues that history is the lens through which its stated reason for the firing should be read.

Constitutional challenge to Georgia’s midwifery restrictions

Filed with the Center for Reproductive Rights and Covington & Burling LLP on behalf of three midwives, challenging Georgia laws that bar direct-entry midwives from practicing at all and require nurse-midwives to hold a paid written agreement with a physician. The complaint invokes the Georgia Constitution’s guarantees of the right to pursue a chosen profession, equal protection, and limits on delegating governmental power to private actors.
