Professor Amar Files Brief in Trump Colorado Ballot Supreme Court Case

Professor Vikram Amar filed an amicus brief with the U.S. Supreme Court in Trump v. Anderson, the case springing from several Colorado voters’ attempt to keep former and 2024 contender President Donald Trump from appearing on the state’s primary ballot.

Vikram Amar returned to UC Davis as a distinguished professor of law in 2023 after serving for eight years as dean and Iwan Foundation Professor of Law at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign College of Law. Before that, he was a professor and the senior associate dean for academic affairs at King Hall from 2008 to 2015.
