Is the American Judiciary still as independent as it was supposed to be?  Chuck Crumpton (practicing Hawaii attorney), Avi Soifer (Dean of the William S. Richardson School of Law) and Walter Kirimitsu (retired judge of the Hawaii Intermediate Court of Appeals), will help us understand the notion of judicial independence under the U.S. Constitution and whether the American Judiciary is still as independent as the Founders hoped it would be.  We will also discuss retired District Judge Jim Dannenberg's recent letter to Chief Justice John Roberts resigning from the U.S. Supreme Court.   The host for this episode is Jay Fidell.  The guests for this episode are Chuck Crumpton, Avi Soifer and Walter Kirimitsu.
