As part of Harvard Law School's bicentennial celebration, Supreme Court advocates and constitutional law scholars Laurence Tribe ’66, Harvard’s Carl M. Loeb University Professor, and Kathleen Sullivan ’81, former dean of Stanford Law School, reargued the landmark 1803 case Marbury v. Madison, in the Ames Courtroom. Hearing the case was an allstar quartet of HLS alumni who serve on federal appeals courts: Merrick Garland ’77, chief judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, presided. He was joined by Judge Joseph Greenaway Jr. ’81 of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 3rd Circuit, Judge Jane Kelly ’91 of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 8th Circuit, and Judge Patricia Millett ’88, who also serves on the D.C. Circuit. Harvard Law School Story Senior Lecturer Susan Davies served as faculty host for the reargument.
