This year’s Law Day theme celebrates the 800th Anniversary of the Magna Carta, an international symbol of the rule of law. This ancient document stands for the simple, and universal, principle that no one, no matter how powerful, is above the law.
There are other anniversaries that we have recently celebrated that reflect the foundational tenets of the Magna Carta. We celebrated the 225th anniversary of our “Mother Court,” the Southern District of New York, this just a few years after reaching the same milestone with the U.S. Constitution. In the context of civil rights, we also recently celebrated the 50th anniversary of Selma marches as well as the 50th anniversary of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
