The Honorable M. Margaret McKeown, United States Circuit Judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, has published Politics and Judicial Ethics: A Historical Perspective in the forum, Legal Ethics in Today’s Political Climate, in the Yale Law Journal. The essay “explores the ethics and politics of extrajudicial activities from a distinctly historical perspective. While others have written about judges and their political and extrajudicial endeavors, this Essay situates its discussion within the evolution of judicial ethics codes, beginning in antiquity and proceeding to the present.”
