  Despite the losses of three sitting justices, Kyle Duncan, an assistant law professor at the University of Mississippi, said he doesn't see any drastic changes ahead for the Supreme Court.
  
  Duncan, who tracked the Supreme Court's decisions from 2004-2008 in research for the Federalist Society, said he expects the court to avoid activism and continue a path of restraint that he calls "just interpreting the plain letter of the law."
  ...
  More likely than not the judge who is replacing him will be — for lack of a better word — more conservative than Diaz was," Duncan said.

  The state's case against overturning Woodfox's conviction will be argued by Kyle Duncan, a University of Mississippi law school professor who is an admirer of the jurisprudence of Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia. He will likely take the usual position in these types of cases, arguing that Woodfox's previous defense attorneys, despite what Trenticosta might say, had every opportunity to cross-examine the witnesses, so no new trial is warranted. But Duncan is little more than a mouthpiece; the force behind the state's appeal is Louisiana attorney general James "Buddy" Caldwell Jr.

  The Associated Press asked Kyle Duncan, an assistant law professor at the University of Mississippi, who tracked the Supreme Court's decisions from 2004-2008 for the Federalist Society, for an explanation. He said the changes foreshadow no big swings and that he expects the court to avoid activism and continue a path of restraint that he calls "just interpreting the plain letter of the law."
  
  "From my point of view that is a desirable thing," Duncan said.

  University of Mississippi law professor Kyle Duncan, who specializes in church/state issues, said the case seems to "present some possible tension" with the pastor's and family's religious freedom rights, but it's still difficult to determine the court's intention.
  
  "It's not clear to me which side of the dispute this implicates," he said.

  The Daily Mississippian - Roberts gains ground - [Cached Version]

  To Kyle Duncan, assistant law professor who teaches constitutional law, terms like "extremist," "moderate," and "ideologue" mean nothing.
  
  It is qualifications that truly matter, he said.Impartiality, not political motivation, is what a judge is charged to answer, he said.
  ...
  Duncan said Roberts will likely face some kind of opposition from the far left as many have gone on record against him.
  ...
  Duncan said that generally, one's opinions of the constitutionality of Roe vs.Wade are completely irrelevant to his qualifications as a judge.
  
  "It's wrong to even ask that question," he said.
  
  To a certain extent appointing and getting a judge confirmed is a political process.
  
  He said judges, however, are not and were never meant to be political figures.
  
  Judges do have judicial styles, a system by which they interpret the constitution.
  
  If by conservative a person means that the judge should adopt a laundry list of political positions, then their thinking is misguided, he said.
  
  In this view, Duncan said he understands he is a minority.
