Too Many Laws Says Attorney Of Pittsburgh
Frank McGirr, Pittsburgh attorney and president of the Pennsylvania Bar Association, warns that the legal system risks being overwhelmed by vast volumes of statutes and decisions. He pleads for an authoritative restatement of the law as Congress and courts generate thousands of pages yearly, noting 175000 U.S. pages versus 7000 in Britain and millions more added in five years. He cites Pennsylvania lawmaking this year as evidence of clutter, while lamenting women's enfranchisement driving new statutes.
