Law’s Jonathan Adler examines revised disclosure rule for judges concerning gift-reporting guidelines

Federal judges no longer required to disclose dining and lodging thanks to rule change
Washington ExaminerJonathan Adler, the Johan Verheij Memorial Professor of Law, noted that a revised disclosure rule for judges “aligns with traditional applications” of gift-reporting standards, suggesting it addresses privacy and transparency concerns. The rule change exempts judges from disclosing stays at personal residences but still requires reporting gifts such as private air travel.
