Ninth Circuit says Yoo is immune from torture claims

John Yoo quoted in The Wall Street Journal, May 2, 2012

Mr. Yoo, in an email to Law Blog, said the Ninth Circuit’s ruling “confirms that this litigation has been baseless from the outset.” “Padilla and his attorneys have been harassing the government officials he believes to have been responsible for his detention and ultimately conviction as a terrorist,” said Mr. Yoo.
