We are Stanford Law


Problem-solvers. Leaders. Innovators.

“Innovation” and “interdisciplinary” approaches are not brochure buzzwords for SLS, but galvanizing principles evident in the law school’s steadfast commitment to forging new frontiers.

David Sklansky, the Stanley Morrison Professor of Law and
Faculty Co-Director of the Stanford Criminal Justice Center joined SLS Professors Pamela Karlan and Richard Ford on Stanford Legal's most recent podcast episode to discuss the legal challenges facing former U.S. president Donald ...Trump.

"Obviously, the judge doesn’t want to put him in jail either, so there’s a bit of a game of chicken here, and Trump is a chaos agent, so then normally, you think that in any game of chicken, he’ll win because he doesn’t care if the world blows up, but here, I don’t think he’s going to win. I think that as much as the judge doesn’t want to put Trump in jail, Trump even more doesn’t want to go to jail," said Professor Sklansky in the episode. Listen in at the link below.
