Bio
My Story
Hello! My name is Dr. David Tamez. My dissertation, earned at the University of Kansas, presents a normative theory of judicial decision-making that formalizes considerations of both legal and extra-legal reasons. Although my area of expertise falls within legal theory and normative ethics, I have also recently focused on the intersection of law and technology as it pertains to courts and judges.
​
Currently, I serve as Assistant Research Professor and Research Program Director for the Institute for Information Sciences at the University of Kansas.
