From How Appealing:
“Lawyer for court also aided Foxwoods; Jeffrey B. Rotwitt took casino cases before Justice Ronald D. Castille while working on the Family Court deal for him”: This article appears today in The Philadelphia Inquirer.

Editorial on Penn. Supreme Court re: Casino Regulation
From the Philadelphia Inquirer:
Whenever casino owners go before the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, it would be easier if Chief Justice Ronald D. Castille kept a rubber stamp handy that said “APPROVED.”
That would save time, trouble and the pretense of impartiality, since the outcome of casino cases before the high court have been a foregone conclusion. Whatever the casino owners need, Castille and his robed colleagues are there to please.
Last week, the court swept aside Philadelphia’s authority to oversee details involving the Foxwoods project on the Delaware River in South Philadelphia [Philadelphia Entertainment and Development Partners v. Phila. City Council, majority opinion, concurring opinion]. Talk about a one-stop approval process. Who knew Castille & Co. were also planning, traffic, safety and zoning experts?
