Examples of Good Legal Writing

 Looking for examples of good legal writing?  In its spring 2010 issue, the Green Bag published a list of "Exemplary Legal Writing" that includes court opinions, concurrences, dissents, books, and articles from 2009.  I particularly like Judge Rakoff's opinion and Lani Guinier's article, but readers may find their own favorites.  The journal's similar lists from past years are also rich sources of examples.
