Most instructors will be far more familiar with Elk Grove Unified School District v. Newdow (2004) than with Forsyth County, Georgia v. the Nationalist Movement (1992), in each of which litigants insisted on representing themselves before the Court. Among other things, these chapters illuminate the crafting of precedents and construction of strategies and tactics by adversaries; the justices' probing of advocates concerning alternatives, consequences, and hypotheticals; the importance of flexibility, fleetness, and felicity in a taut forensic setting; and the challenges of reaching justices open to persuasion without antagonizing justices who may sidetrack arguments in ways that defeat litigants' designs.
