Cashier (looking at me knowingly): You work here, right? I see you here a lot …
Me: Well, I do work here a lot …
Cashier: We have an employee discount for you! [I then told her that I technically was not an employee}
Second, the pure joy of having my son and wife at a number of the oral arguments. Third, the moot court preparations. NAAG and the Supreme Court Institute at Georgetown were great – very helpful. The most difficult I did was at the Heritage Foundation in the Graham case — Ed Meese presiding with legal scholars, former SGs, etc. — it was two full hours of intense argument.
Mauro: What is next for you?
Makar: Not sure. I’m open to a lot of possibilities. I would serve as SG again, if asked. I would also enjoy returning to an appellate practice and having an outlet for teaching law and publishing articles and books. I have two books on the drawing board, both related to courses I have taught: “Florida, the Constitution, and the United States Supreme Court” and “Famous Florida Trials.”
