Hear ye, hear ye. Come one, come all. I will be writing another amicus brief for the Ninth Circuit En Banc case Duncan v Becerra (CA LCM ban).
I am soliciting feedback as to what should be included.
The brief is formally due 21 May 2021. Both parties will be filing simultaneous supplemental opening briefs on 14 May as well as simultaneous supplemental reply briefs on 1 June. The amicus brief is limited to 3500 words.
Here is a link to my original amicus brief. https://michellawyers.com/wp-conten...cus-Brief-of-John-Cutonilli-ISO-Appellees.pdf
I have also attached my Brief in Opposition to Rehearing En Banc
You can find most of the information on other parties briefs and court opinions here https://michellawyers.com/duncan-v-becerra/
Here is a discussion on writing effective amicus briefs

Given the reasons cited in the Defendant-Appellant’s Unopposed Motion for Supplemental Briefing, there will likely be overlap between what I wrote and what will be included in the parties supplemental briefs. I will likely delete any overlap and supplement with things that might need better support. I won't know for sure until the briefs are released.
I am not looking to know why the previous briefs are good. I am interested in figuring out what might be missing, what is unclear, and how to make it better.
