No Justice

Former Supreme Court Justice David Souter -- the Boo Radley of the federal bench -- is moving up in the world, reports the New York Times, giving up his iconic New Hampshire farm house for some nicer place closer to town. And when it comes time for Souter to unload the old place -- the sort of humble digs befitting a man once billed as a latter-day Abe Lincoln -- he'll do so voluntarily and happily, completely free from government intimidation or coercion or blackmail.

Unlike the home sale forced upon Suzette Kelo of New London, Connecticut, whose court case will forever attach like a stain to the retiring justice's name.
