Today's Center for Court Innovation staff meeting featured a book talk by Tony Thompson, a professor at NYU Law School and author of Releasing Prisoners, Redeeming Communities. While Tony has been a vocal critic of some of our projects, I think that over the years our engagement with him has helped make our work stronger. I like to think that one of the strengths of the Center is our willingess to engage with skeptics and respond to on-point criticism.
