"So Many First Amendment Violations, So Little Time" | Tom Leatherbury

Many lawyers go to law school thinking that they want to litigate weighty Constitutional questions. But those cases don’t often arise in regular practice.  One area that does implicate the Constitution is First Amendment law, which winds through so many aspects of civil practice. Few people know that better than Tom Leatherbury, the founder and director of SMU’s First Amendment Clinic. Tom joins Todd Smith and Jody Sanders to discuss his background in appellate law and his particular knowledge and expertise in First Amendment law. He also shares details about SMU’s clinic—how it started and what they do to help litigants and train a new generation of attorneys interested in these important principles.
