Not a good day for BYU lawyers

In this house editorial, "A Nominee With No License," The New York Times urges the United States Senate not to confirm the nomination of Tom Griffith to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit. In the same editorial, the Times holds up Ninth Circuit Judge Jay Bybee as an example of a judicial nominee who was confirmed too quickly. Bybee is a BYU Law graduate and Griffith is BYU's top lawyer.
