Item Information

Title:
55th Annual Donahue Lecture: Hon. Alex Kozinski: "Should Reading Legislative History Be an Impeachable Offense?" (videorecording), 1998
Description:
On February 19, 1998, the Honorable Alex Kozinski presented "Should Reading Legislative History Be an Impeachable Offense?" for the Donahue Lecture Series in the Pallot Library at Suffolk Law School. At the time, Judge Kozinski served on the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. He was appointed to the position in 1985 at the age of 35, making him the youngest federal appeals court judge since William Howard Taft. Since its inception in 1980, the Frank J. Donahue Memorial Lecture Series has been sponsored by The Suffolk University Law Review, and annually attracts lecturers from among the nation’s top legal scholars and jurists. Each Donahue Lecturer is an exceptionally prominent legal scholar who delivers a lecture at Suffolk University Law School that forms the basis for a Lead Article to be published in the Law Review shortly thereafter. The Law Review instituted this lecture series in 1980 to commemorate the Honorable Frank J. Donahue, former faculty member, trustee, and treasurer of Suffolk University. Judge Donahue graduated from Suffolk University Law School in 1921, and served as an Associate Justice of the Superior Court of Massachusetts for forty-two years — the longest term in that court’s history.
