	Notes: An Introduction to Legal Reasoning
		Edward H. Levi addresses processes of legal reasoning the court uses relating to case, statutory, and constitutional law.
		Levi sees case law as progressing in three stages: "similarity is seen between cases; next the rule of law inherent in the first case is announced; then the rule of law is made applicable to the second case" (2).
		Levi's statement that the judge's "statement [of the rule] is mere dictum" seems odd to the novice, because when briefing a case a student of the law is led to believe that the very rule is precisely what is not dicta.

	Edward Hirsch Levi
		Levi's shortcomings were intimately connected to the temperamental timidity from which he suffered, a timidity not unrelated (one suspects) to his inability to be completely comfortable with memories of the ways of his fathers, ways from which he evidently considered himself liberated.
		Levi's elevation to high office nationally was that he was obliged to reconsider much of the legal theory, or jurisprudential principles, by which he, as a determinedly toughminded "legal realist," had been captivated for decades.
		Levi that he came to power within the University of Chicago at a time when the faculty itself, unduly apprehensive about threats to academic life from within as well as from without the University, became inordinately dependent upon and grateful to the sophisticated lawyer who seemed to protect them from their own students.

	Attorney General's Memorandum on the 1974 Amendments to the FOIA
		H 10006 (Oct. 7, 1974) (Congressman Erlenborn).) The provision originated in the Senate bill, under which the court was required to take action if it found that the employee's withholding of records was "without reasonable basis in law." The Conference Committee changed this to "arbitrarily and capriciously." (See Conf.
		H 10003 (Oct. 7, 1974) (letter of chairman of conferees).) In applying clause (C), it will also be necessary to take account of the Privacy Act of 1974, Public Law 93-579, which takes effect in September 1975.
		Thus, in determining the meaning of clause (C), it is appropriate to consider the body of court decisions regarding the latter--bearing in mind, of course, that the deletion of "clearly" renders the Government's burden somewhat lighter under the new provisions.

	Jurisprudence - Legal Philosophy
		According to Edward H. Levi in his book An Introduction to Legal Reasoning, to believe that "law is a system of known rules applied by a judge" (p.1) is, in effect, to accept a myth or conceptual pretense about the actual nature of law.
		Nevertheless, Levi suggests there is an interim period of conceptual 'fumbling' which leads up to the final acknowledgement of, in the present case, the notion of 'dangerous articles' as a legal concept.
		Indeed, if one adopts Levi's basic approach to legal reasoning, one will misconstrue the processes which are given expression through legal reasoning.

		Edward H. Levi (1911-2000) was the Glen A. Lloyd Distinguished Service Professor Emeritus in the College and the Law School of the University of Chicago.
		Interestingly, Levi quotes Aristotle in asserting that the pattern of legal reasoning consists of reasoning by example, and that it follows a three-step process: With the doctrine of precedent assumed throughout, a proposition describing a particular case is made into law and then this rule is applied to a situation that is similar to these.
		Levi summarizes this as a process in which the classification changes as the classification is made, i.e., the rules change as they are applied.
