It is an old law school question: If 12 judges review a case and only four of them side with the defendant, who triumphs? In the seven-member New York State Court of Appeals, Gov. David A. Paterson got the four critical votes he needed to sustain his appointment of a new lieutenant governor in the recently decided Skelos v. Paterson, _NY3d_, 2009 WL 2997072 (Sept. 22).

For those concerned with constitutional adherence the primary issue is that the appointment of new executive branch officials and White House advisors may not be consistent with the Appointments Clause ofthe United States Constitution.13 While, for others the practical issue is that the expansive use of czars raises accountability, legislative oversight and governmental efficiency concerns.14 Both categories of issues implicate constitutional concerns of separation of powers,15 checks and balances,16 and doctrinal constitutional adherence.

In the U.S. Senate, only one-third of the members stand for election every two years; the rest carry over from one congressional term to the next. In this regard the Senate differs from the House of Representatives, where all members stand for election every two-year cycle. That much is familiar, but what legal consequences flow from this structural difference? According to some legislators, courts, and commentators, this difference is very important in that it makes the Senate, but not the House, a “continuing body.” The continuing-body idea is invoked to defend highly controversial aspects of Senate practice. By far the most familiar context in which the idea arises—and the one with the most potential for generating serious conflict—is the debate over the legal...
