I was, understandably, excited when I made my first visit to the US Supreme Court.

I would have been even more excited if the case hadn’t been of such crucial importance to my company and to multinational corporations everywhere. I had read the briefs, including the legion of amicus briefs that had been filed in support of the respective parties and the briefs ISNP – “In Support of Neither Party” – and was looking forward to hearing the argument.
