Supreme Court Nomination & Tort Law

Over the coming weeks, we will no doubt hear a lot about the imminent Supreme Court vacancy, and some of those discussions will presumably relate to tort law.  Today, a couple of links, with no representation that they're representative:

• Eric Turkewitz advocates for "the tissue box test" in advocating for a nominee with experience as a trial lawyer.  Walter Olson disagrees but is still glad he read it.
• Scott Greenfield has a similar theme, as does Norm Pattis. 
• The Nation has a number of takes, though mostly unrelated to tort law.
• NAM wants judges who "understand business."
