His scholarly interests include public institutional design and specialized courts, and he recently published an article on juvenile drug courts, When Good Intentions are Not Enough: Problem Solving Courts and the Impending Crisis of Legitimacy, SMU Law Review (Fall, 2004). Mr. Casey currently teaches the Criminal Justice Clinic.
