I’m looking forward to reading this new book from my brilliant law school professor, @michaelcpollack. He’s one of the top minds out there on legal issues related to land use, and I know his deep dive into sidewalks will be comprehensive and fascinating.

We have to care about sidewalks because they are at the center of our most significant public debates: commerce, tech, tax, property, policing, homelessness, surveillance, free speech, socioeconomic equity, public health, climate resilience,….
Don’t believe me? Read the book!

Our new paper, Decentering Property in Fourth Amendment Law is now out in the U. Chicago Law Review! It argues that property concepts should be used very carefully, and very little, in modern Fourth Amendment law.

Delighted that my paper with @mtokson, Decentering Property in Fourth Amendment Law, is now officially out in the @UChiLRev! Many thanks to friends and colleagues for valuable feedback and to the editors at Chicago for their great work!
UChicago Law Review@UChiLRev
@conorjclarke @michaelcpollack @mtokson @adri_robertson Michael C. Pollack (@michaelcpollack) & Matthew Tokson (@mtokson) expose the flaws of property-centered Fourth Amendment law, showing how it can be manipulated, exclude digital privacy, and leave society’s most disadvantaged with the least protection.

@DavidZipper has a great piece on how we can better fund sidewalk improvements. I was delighted to speak with him about my research and forthcoming book on the subject, so check out the piece below for a preview (and some terrific analysis of his own too).

Excited and honored to be taking the helm at Roosevelt Institute. Our economy should work for the many, not just the few. The Roosevelt community has been instrumental in the fight for shared prosperity, and I can't wait to jump back in in this new capacity. Let's get to work!

I'm honored that the @WashULaw faculty has voted to grant me tenure!!! There's more hoops to go through, but its a huge relief to have this milestone behind me. Its been a long journey from First Gen to tenure, and I couldn't have done it without my mentors, friends, and family.

@Nick_BPSS @2AvSagas Right, I think there’s a totally colorable argument that she had no remaining discretion. I just think the “easiest” winning argument here is the arbitrary/capricious one. But both are on the table.
English
@michaelcpollack @2AvSagas I’m all for putting it to the test of what her rationale was because it’s important to know but I think even if she slapped together a fake study that said “here are bad economic effects” that wouldn’t give her the power to do this anyway if that makes sense.
English
Engoron has ordered motions by October 15 and no additional conferences. This case will be resolved sooner rather than later, and it would be politically wise for Hochul to finally try to find an off-ramp from this mess she created.
Good Idea Dave@DaveCoIon
What’s next for the suits? As @michaelcpollack explains, it’s now time for the governor to put up or shut up nyc.streetsblog.org/2024/09/27/den…
English
@2AvSagas @Nick_BPSS Sub “not arbitrary/capricious” for “rational basis” but yeah. I’m not saying she necessarily does have that latitude, but even if she does, I still haven’t heard a reason that clears the bar.
English
@Nick_BPSS This is more @michaelcpollack's area of law than mine, but I think the argument is that if Hochul's rationale is that she has the right to do this subject to some rational basis, you need to actual show what that rational basis is.
