Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast! In this episode, we’re discussing fundamental concepts that are taught in first-year Con Law classes. First, we’ll look at justiciability – the set of threshold doctrines that decide whether a federal court is allowed to hear a constitutional case in the first place. Then we’ll move to the individual rights side and dig into the single most important analytical tool in the entire area – the levels of scrutiny (sometimes called standards of review). We’ll finish by working through a fact pattern that ties it all together.
