CNN legal analyst Joan Biskupic will deliver this year’s Tucker Lecture at Washington and Lee University School of Law.
The lecture will take place Monday, Oct. 28 at noon in the Millhiser Moot Court Room, Sydney Lewis Hall on the campus of Washington and Lee. The title of Biskupic’s talk is “The Life and Power of Chief Justice John Roberts.” This event is free and open to the public.
Biskupic is a full-time CNN legal analyst and author of a 2019 biography of Chief Justice John Roberts. In her talk, she will explore the early influences in Roberts’ life and then his nearly 15-year tenure in the center chair of the U.S. Supreme Court. Biskupic notes that for the first time in nearly a century, the chief justice is not only at the center of the bench but at the ideological middle of the nine, and he is poised to be the key deciding vote in the most contentious cases.
