A professor posed me an interesting question, yesterday:
We all know the old quote, "The Law is a Seamless Web".
However, what exactly is the citation? The professor who asked me
thought
it was Justice Holmes. I had always thought it was Justice Cardozo.
Another person I have contacted thought it was originally Frederic
Maitland.
So far, I have checked sources for quotations on Westlaw and Lexis, and
Bartletts (both on-line and in print) and a number of other Web and
Print
sources for this quotation, but have yet to find it. It is proving a
lot
harder to pin down than I originally anticipated.
If anyone knows the exact source, and citation, for this quote, it will
be much appreciated.
