Court Grammarian?
http://volokh.com/archives/archive_2009_04_05-2009_04_11.shtml#1238905139
[1]Bill Poser (Language Log) pointed me to this passage [2]Providence
Journal article:
[Former Chief Justice Frank] Williams� new chambers needed a total
overhaul, Berke said, because the office space had been used for a
different purpose for years. It was formerly occupied by the [Rhode
Island Supreme C]ourt�s grammarian and interns, Berke said, and had
been configured not as a chambers for a justice, but as an office
with three work stations.
Anyone know more about the Rhode Island Supreme Court grammarian?
