Putting Brennan on the Map!

Justice Brennan

Justice Brennan

Currently, I’m in a constitutional law class. While doing research for various papers, I realized very few websites have taken the time to organize cases according to Supreme Court justices (e.g. which cases they wrote majority opinions, dissenting opinions, concurring opinions, etc.). I know Wikipedia is a good reference guide in that it can quickly familiarize you with a topic and point you in the right direction. Therefore, I decided to check out the Wikipedia page of my favorite justice, Justice Brennan, hoping it would tell me, at the very least, the cases in which he wrote the majority opinion. But alas! Wikipedia only mentioned his noteworthy quotes and provided no systematic way of revealing the cases in which he wrote any opinion. Thus, I decided to take it upon myself to start such a list by adding a chart denoting each case in which Justice Brennan wrote the majority opinion. You can check out the list here!
