Is It Finally Time to Break Up the Ninth Circuit? (Ilya Shapiro, CATO Institute)

September 18, 2021

Nearly four years ago, I published a Wall Street Journal oped alongside Arizona attorney general Mark Brnovich arguing for splitting up the Ninth Circuit — but not because it’s liberal. Instead, it’s simply too big, covering 40% of the nation’s land mass and 20% of its population. As a result, it decides an extraordinary number of appeals — more than 11,000 a year, half again as many as the second‐busiest circuit and nearly triple the average. It’s not good for access to justice or consistency in the law; Ninth Circuit judges don’t even have time to read their colleagues’ opinions!
