NYT v. Sullivan: Will the Landmark Defamation Ruling Survive?
Briefly

The article follows Roy Katriel, an ambitious lawyer who dreams of arguing cases before the U.S. Supreme Court. Highlighting the competitive and exclusive nature of the Supreme Court, which hears about 80 cases a year among 1.3 million attorneys, it recounts Katriel's persistence. His journey included unsuccessfully petitioning for a case review and receiving encouragement from a prominent Supreme Court litigator. Katriel's turning point came when he discovered a significant defamation lawsuit involving Shkelzen Berisha, leading him to seek further opportunities for legal advocacy before the highest court.
The United States Supreme Court's exclusive nature makes it a challenging environment for lawyers, with only about 80 cases heard each year among a vast legal community.
Roy Katriel's journey to the Supreme Court illustrates the determination and perseverance necessary for lawyers aspiring to argue high-stakes cases in America's judicial system.
