Mark W. Smith
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mark W. Smith (1968-), a trial lawyer member of the Bar of the United States Supreme Court.
He wrote the Official Handbook of the Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy. His latest book is Disrobed: The New Battle Plan to Break the Left's Stranglehold on the Courts.
Graduating from New York University in 1995, Smith currently serves as a trial lawyer in private practice in New York City. He has previously served as a public interest lawyer representing a variety of clients, many of whom were challenging burdensome regulatory laws or alleged infringements upon their Constitutional rights.
He has also worked as an Adjunct Professor of Law at the University of Kansas Law School, where he taught a course on American laws with respect to firearms ownership. He has also served as a law clerk to a federal judge in the past.
[edit] Disrobed
His novel, Disrobed argues that "who wins in the courts often depends more on politics and ideology than on the rule of law" [1] and recommends that conservatives start using "liberal" tactics such as judicial activism, rather than remaining with the more typical conservative philosophy of the appropriate role of the courts with respect to the Judicial interpretation of the U.S. Constitution, treaties, or U.S. law (called Judicial restraint, Strict construction, or Originalism).
Its publisher, Random House, says:
- Smith reminds us that courts, judges, and lawyers need not be enemies of the Right, and can even serve as valuable allies in the war against liberalism. But as his groundbreaking book shows, conservatives must force this change by taking swift action. [2]
