More Legal Writing Advice (sort of) from Judge Posner

Courtesy of Howard Bashman at How Appealing, the most recent issue of the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals Bar Association’s journal, “Circuit Rider” is available at this link. The issue contains a very interesting piece on legal writing in which the author urges brief writers (and others) to adopt what Judges Posner and Easterbrook – two masterful writers, regardless of how you might view their jurisprudential philosophies – describe as the “impure” style of writing. I highly commend the article, and The Circuit Rider, to your attention.
