Greetings from White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia! My first social event starts momentarily, but I will be fashionably late.

Programming note: Today I’ll be traveling to the Greenbrier in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia to attend the Judicial Conference of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, where I’ll be a speaker and panelist on the Friday morning program, titled “Opening Up: Can the Courts Be More Open and Better Understood?” The New Yorker‘s Jeffrey Toobin will also be participating as a speaker on that panel. I’ll provide a complete list of my co-panelists in an upcoming post. Apparently C-SPAN will be recording the program for broadcast at a later date.

On Saturday morning, Chief Justice John G. Roberts, Jr. is scheduled to deliver the Chief Justice’s traditional end-of-Term remarks at the conference.
