Litman lives in La Jolla with his wife, Julie Roskies Litman, a mathematician, 3 time jiu jitsu world champion, and former professional bass player. They have three school age children; David, Lila, and Toby. Litman's parents, Roslyn Litman and David Litman, represented future NBA star Connie Hawkins in his successful suit to be admitted into the league. Ms. Litman pursued the case, an unconventional challenge to antitrust law, with her husband and law partner, S. David Litman, and another lawyer, Howard Specter. They argued that the N.B.A. had in effect illegally banned Mr. Hawkins and deprived him of the “opportunity to earn a livelihood.” Litman's sister, Jessica Litman, is a renowned copyright scholar at the University of Michigan.

“Judge Mikva’s clerks were a close-knit group, recalled Harry Litman, who clerked with Ms. Kagan for both Judge Mikva and Justice Marshall. Ms. Kagan clearly “was Mikva’s favorite,” Mr. Litman said, “but there was no sense of sycophancy to her.” Done

Okay, I see now. This is a really confusing way to offer this to us. What really helps is something like
Replace
Litman served as a law clerk to Abner Mikva of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit; citation needed
with
Litman served as a law clerk to Abner Mikva of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit; [1]
Remember that we are all volunteers here. Every last one of us, and we have our own interests. Make your requests as easy as possible for us to help with. Valereee ( talk) 13:17, 17 November 2022 (UTC)
References
The best way to deal with edit requests is to make them one at a time, and in this format:
Replace
Litman served as a law clerk to Abner Mikva of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit; citation needed
with
Litman served as a law clerk to Abner Mikva of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit; [1]

You can take a look at the source code here (click "edit source" next to the section header) to see what I've done. the reflist talk template is what makes a list of the sources at the bottom of the post. The hash sign numbers a list and makes it all start in the same place. The ref template is an easy template for a very simple citation (just title and url, which is the minimum needed).

I've removed the banners because most of the cns have been addressed and the COI editing seems to have stopped. I'm still wondering about possibly assessing some of the content for noteworthiness for inclusion, checking to make sure nothing that should be here isn't.
