how to use published article you want to quote verbatim
Posted: Fri Dec 09, 2016 7:41 pm
I have found an article that makes all the arguments I want to make in an
appellate case, which arguments I made either in writing or orally in the
underlying case, though not as artfully. It is beautifully supported by
case law, statutes and legislative history for an issue for which all you
can find is dicta or poorly reasoned decisions. I must confess that I want
to basically say, something like: this "[professor] makes all of the
arguments that require a ruling in favor of the Debtors in his article
entitled [name] and I reproduce verbatim the relevant sections here to
avoid diluting the strength of his compelling arguments directly on point
and urge this panel to read all of these important arguments:"
I think simply briefly summarizing the points and directing the Court to
read the attached article will lead to the Court's not actually reading the
article and relying on the brief summaries (though it is difficult to
summarize here without losing important points). What do you all think?
Is that acceptable?
