To the Editor:

The Aug. 4 Connecticut Law Tribune included a guest commentary from Chris Powell entitled, “Social Justice Doesn’t Flow From The Courts.” Although several weeks have passed, I have not seen any responses to the article, which I thought would be quick and furious. Maybe we have become too conditioned or cynical to respond to such commentary, but discourse about these issues is important for many reasons, including the need to avoid the impression that there is general agreement with the views expressed.
