Although they are often at odds in written opinions, U.S. Supreme Court Justices Antonin Scalia and Elena Kagan were full of warm praise for each other at an event yesterday at the University of Mississippi School of Law. “We have a really collegial court,” Kagan told the students. And both agreed that common ground often overrides ideological differences on the high court, the Associated Press reports. Kagan and Scalia, for example, have built a relationship in part around hunting. The pair talked about their favorite and least favorite parts of the job but declined to answer a question about what they would consider the court’s biggest mistake. The Commercial Appeal has the AP story.
