- Title
Bush v. Gore and the Uses of "Limiting".
- Authors
Flanders, Chad
- Abstract
The author reflects on the U.S. Supreme Court's use of various types of limiting language in the George W. Bush versus Albert Gore case. In this case, the meaning of limiting language nullifies its principle. It could be noted that no other majority in Court history has applied limiting language to the decided case. It tends to be unclear the Court has the power to limit the principle of a decision to a single case. A common technique in a wholly uncommon way is also used in the case.
