Edited Version of Chiles v. Salazar for Barnett/Blackman supplement

This is a brief academic commentary on a Supreme Court case, written by a law professor for a casebook supplement. The tone is professorial and analytical rather than polemical, but the framing reveals libertarian-leaning jurisprudential preferences: the author critiques Justice Jackson's dissent as suffering from "Lochnerphobia" (a charge typically made by those skeptical of robust judicial scrutiny of commercial regulation) and frames Gorsuch's majority opinion approvingly as a clear teaching tool.
