Last weekend, on Sunday, I had some water in the basement, and as my wife and I worked to air out some items that had gotten damp, she came across a box of old Law Journal print editions.

I could not help but look through them, and immediately noticed a number of front-page stories from Michael Booth: His coverage of then-Justice Roberto Rivera-Soto’s impending departure from the Supreme Court, Anne Patterson’s confirmation to the court, and much more. By the time these reports came (2011), Mike had already been doing the job for many years.
