Kennedy Turns Senate Judiciary into a Bar Exam!

In this unforgettable moment from a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, Senator John Neely Kennedy (R-Louisiana) delivers what Senator Durbin (D-Illinois) calls a “6-minute bar exam” to Biden judicial nominee Sara E. Hill. Kennedy quizzes Hill on foundational legal doctrines every federal judge should know: – What is collateral estoppel? (She freezes.) – What’s the amount in controversy requirement for federal diversity jurisdiction? (She gets it right.) – What’s the difference between a stay and an injunction? (She stumbles.) – What does the Multidistrict Litigation statute do? (She confesses unfamiliarity.) – How is the Eighth Amendment's 'cruel and unusual punishment' clause applied? (Her answer clashes with Supreme Court precedent.) 👉 Collateral estoppel, for example, is a critical doctrine that bars the re-litigation of issues already decided by a court — ensuring judicial economy and consistency. 👉 The amount in controversy requirement is $75,000 under 28 U.S.C. § 1332(a) for federal diversity cases. 👉 A stay pauses legal proceedings; an injunction compels or prevents actions. 👉 Under 28 U.S.C. § 1407, the MDL statute allows the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation to consolidate similar cases for pretrial coordination. 👉 And Eighth Amendment analysis hinges on whether punishments are grossly disproportionate or violate evolving standards of decency. Despite some correct answers, Hill flounders on key points. Could YOU pass Kennedy’s bar exam?
