Profs. Gross and Ní Aoláin Work Cited by Israeli Supreme Court
Professors Oren Gross and Fionnuala Ní Aoláin's work dealing with cognitive biases that may affect decision-making processes in times of crisis and exigency was cited by Justice Hanan Meltzer of the Israeli Supreme Court. In its sharply split 6-5 decision handed down on Jan. 11 in HCJ 466/07 Galon et al v. The Attorney-General et al, the Israeli Supreme Court rejected claims that a law known as the "Citizenship Law" was unconstitutional.
