All Things Amicus is a resource for anyone interested in amicus curiae (friend of the court) briefs. You will see articles and presentations discussing how to use amicus briefs strategically and write them persuasively. You will find links to the Supreme Court’s newly revised amicus rules, and to the local amicus rules of each of the federal courts of appeals. And you can access many of the Supreme Court and other amicus briefs that I have written for the Atlantic Legal Foundation, DRI-The Voice of the Defense Bar, and other organizations.
