		Remarks Announcing the Nomination of Douglas H. Ginsburg To Be an Associate Justice of the
		Judge Ginsburg is, as I am, as every justice I've nominated has been, a believer in judicial restraint; that is, that the proper role of the courts is to interpret the law, not make it.
		Throughout his professional career, Judge Ginsburg has shown that he also believes, as I do, that the courts must administer fair and firm justice, while remembering not just the rights of criminals but, equally important, the rights of the victims of crime and the rights of society.

	CNN.com - The Situation: Thursday, October 27 - Oct 27, 2005
		You may recall that the Douglas H. Ginsburg nomination went up in smoke, so to speak, in the fall of 1987 after news organizations and egg-faced White House vetters learned that he had smoked marijuana with students while he was a law professor.
		This time around, it was another "Ginbsurg Precedent" that loomed over Miers, one set not by Ruth Bader Ginsburg, but rather by Douglas H. Ginsburg, the federal judge who had held the dubious distinction of being the last Supreme Court nominee to drop out of the process without getting confirmed.
		Ginsburg was President Reagan's second pick to replace the retiring Lewis Powell; the first choice was Robert Bork, who as the last Supreme Court nominee to be defeated in a Senate vote also sets a precedent that Miers was eager not to follow.

		Reagan put forth Douglas H. Ginsburg on Oct. 29, 1987, as a man "who believes profoundly in the rule of law." On Nov. 7 -- after it came to light that the nominee had used marijuana -- Ginsburg withdrew.
		Reagan commended his "clear thinking." Because Reagan had not yet sent Ginsburg's name to the Senate, his withdrawal is not included in the official tally.
		The framers of the Constitution believed the president should be given the benefit of the doubt in court nominations, says Pepperdine University law professor Douglas W. Kmiec, who served Reagan and George H.W. Bush as constitutional legal counsel.

		On July 27, in an opinion authored by Chief Judge Douglas H. Ginsburg and joined by Judge Harry T. Edwards, a majority of a D.C.

		He is a former law clerk to D.C. Circuit Judge Douglas H. Ginsburg and to U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.
		Justices Scalia and Ginsburg challenged whether the risk of damages would in fact be significant, but there was little substance or heat in those challenges, and the practical consequences of the Court's ruling quickly took a back seat to the legal interpretation of what constituted a permissible revision of a collective work.

	Boston.com / News / Nation / Washington / Threatened Amtrak strike
		For Amtrak to prevail, Chief Judge Douglas H. Ginsburg said, the passenger railroad must establish "some connection between the strike and the subject of bargaining."
		The nation's second-highest court told lawyers on both sides that the central question that the ruling will address is whether a strike by 8,000 of Amtrak's 21,000 employees would be a political protest, an act that would not violate the Railroad Labor Act, or an extension of bargaining between the railroad and the union.
		The threatened work stoppage, originally planned for last Oct. 3, had been on hold pending the decision of a lower federal court, which in December ruled for the union that the walkout would be a legal form of protest exempt under the Railroad Labor Act.
