Jeffrey L. Fisher - A Rising Star
Learn about Jeffrey L. Fisher, he argued two cases in the Court last term, including Blakely and won both. His 2-0 record is even more impressive when you consider that he represented criminal defendants in both cases. Not bad for a 33 year old attorney.
My favorite moment from Mr. Fisher's argument in Blakely was the following:
QUESTION: I guess the tough question is whether the sentencing guidelines, or rather the Sixth Amendment are unconstitutional, right?
MR. FISHER: I think the Sixth Amendment is constitutional, Justice Scalia -
