Anthony Guttman is a non-resident fellow at the Stanford Constitutional Law Center. His research explores how modern federal rules and judicial practice have reshaped, and in some instances displaced, centuries-old common-law doctrines. His current work traces the traditional adverse inference applied against parties who destroyed evidence and examines how contemporary federal courts have recast that presumption as a discretionary sanction under modern procedural frameworks.

His prior work has been published in the Denver Law Review, including an article about the en banc process in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit. He has also received the Denver Law Review’s Emerging Scholar Award for another article exploring evidence-disclosure obligations and prosecutorial practice at the plea bargaining stage.

Anthony currently practices at Kellogg Hansen in Washington, D.C., where he works across trial, appellate, and Supreme Court litigation, representing both plaintiffs and defendants. Before joining the Center, he clerked for the Honorable Allison H. Eid of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit and the Honorable John B. Nalbandian of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit.

Anthony earned his law degree with High Honors from the University of Chicago Law School, where he was elected to the Order of the Coif and served as President of the Moot Court Board. He received a B.S.B.A. and three minors from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.
