Scalia and Harvard Law Professor Trade Barbs in Court

Scalia and Harvard Law Professor Trade Barbs in Court:


Two outsized personalities clashed at the Supreme Court on Wednesday when Justice Antonin Scalia was briefly silenced by a barbed comment from longtime Harvard Law professor and television commentator Arthur Miller. Lawyers who argue at the Court are advised that jokes often fall flat -- but this one left other justices laughing and solicited an "ooh" from spectators. And it wasn't long before Scalia had his say.
