The “feminism isn’t fair” guy has moved from texting to calling. Here’s today’s number. I’m sure he changes it frequently.
My own view is that law school classes for the most part teach the basic concepts in a field -- the "instincts" you mention in the first paragraph. The time limit is not so much to mimic some real-world exercise, but to see if the students have absorbed the essential framework that precedes research

For the reasons stated above, the government's motion for a stay of the transfer order requiring Öztürk's transportation from immigration custody in Louisiana to immigration custody in the District of Vermont is DENIED. The government's request for a writ of mandamus is also DENIED. The administrative stay entered by this Court is hereby VACATED. Recognizing both that the district court's original transfer deadline has passed, along with the practical and legal consequences of our decision for the parties, the government is hereby ORDERED to comply with the district court's transfer order within one week of the date of this opinion. Accordingly, the district court's April 18, 2025 Order is hereby amended as follows: "To support the Court's resolution of these issues, the Court orders that Ms. Öztürk be physically transferred to ICE custody within the District of Vermont no later than May 14, 2025." The district court may amend its hearing schedule as it deems necessary in light of this order.
