A to Z Challenge Theme Reveal



Today's the day!  Those of us participating in the A to Z Blogging Challenge [and it's not too late for you to join the fun] reveal our themes, if we have one.

And I have one.

My theme this year is – US Supreme Court cases [and a few odd smatterings of other incidents] which changed the course of law, and life, in the USA.
US Supreme Court in 2009 [with Scalia]

To give you a little tidbit [taken from John Davis (manuscript) Frain's idea, visit his blog for more info], my first day is “A is for Arizona”.  Do you know what case I'm using, and what that case was about?  If you do, post your guess in the comments.  You'll find out on April 1 if your guess was right =)

I'll still be continuing my “this day in legal and military history” during April.  My "this day" posts will be live on the blog at 5am and my A to Z posts will go live at 6am [California time].

Hope you enjoy the month of April!

  1. Is it horrible that I can't even formulate a guess for "A". Yikes. The upside: I MUST come back to find the answer!

    Really, I was planning to come back anyway. This sounds like fascinating stuff. I mean, if the Supreme Court already vetted it for interest, who am I to argue? C'mon, April 1...

    1. This should be interesting. A dead guy visiting my blog. Maybe even commenting too. Or is it true the rumor I heard, that you have 27 lives?

    1. I thought it was different. Yours is different too. I never thought there were at least 26 films that would qualify as 1940s film noir. I'm interested to learn what you come up with!

  9. I'm in Phoenix. The case has to be Miranda! I have an attorney son in NYC so law cases interest me a lot.

    I found you because you found me! I am doing personality quirks for character development. I hope you'll come by again at www.angelicafrench.blogspot.com

    1. Since you're in Phoenix, you got the Arizona part right! Come back on April 1 to see if you got the Miranda part right. Good guess tho =)

      Say hi to your son for me.

    1. Yes, it's been an interesting year or two with SCOTUS decisions. Some of mine for the challenge will be new, but most are older.

      I hope you have a great challenge too!

  11. I know next to nothing about the American legal system, so this will make for some very interesting reading.

    Good luck with the challenge. :-)
