Attorney Allegedly Plagiarizes Supreme Court Justices in Quest to Join Arizona Court of Appeals
The Arizona Capitol Times is reporting that an applicant for the Arizona Court of Appeals plagiarized multiple memorable passages from confirmation hearings for two U.S. Supreme Court justices.
Kristina Reeves, an attorney in private practice and former assistant attorney general, is one of 11 applicants hoping to fill a vacancy on the Court of Appeals, reports the Capitol Times‘ Dillon Rosenblatt.
The alleged plagiarism involved copied-and-pasted passages from speeches by U.S. Supreme Court Justices Neil Gorsuch and Samuel Alito, including multiple passages of Gorsuch’s confirmation speech to the Senate Judiciary Committee in 2017, altering it minimally to suit her gender, according to Rosenblatt.
