U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia has an admission to make: Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is sharper at intellectual property law than he is.

“My judgment is often guided considerably by Ruth,” Scalia said in a tribute video for Ginsburg shown last week at a dinner hosted by the ChIPs organization for female IP lawyers. Scalia’s remarks came in the context of praising Ginsburg for her grasp of intellectual property law. Yet his words and other tributes to Ginsburg on Oct. 27 played up the lore and fandom that’s grown even in elite legal circles around the 82-year-old justice, her friendship with Scalia and her prominence among women professionals. The ChIPs organization, celebrating its 10th anniversary, inducted Ginsburg and her daughter, Columbia Law School Professor Jane Ginsburg, into their Hall of Fame.
