The Lawyer-Judge Bias in the American Legal System
Barton, Benjamin H. (University of Tennessee, Knoxville)
Virtually all American judges are former lawyers, a shared background that results in the lawyer-judge bias. This book argues that these lawyer-judges instinctively favor the legal profession in their decisions and that this bias has far-reaching and deleterious effects on American law.
