In a letter sent to Guild council members, Constantine made it clear her decision to leave the Guild shortly after the U.S. Supreme Court denied the association’s appeal in the Google case was not a coincidence (The court rejected the appeal Monday). “I promised Paul when he became incapacitated that I would continue at the Guild until the Supreme Court had ruled on our petition for certiorari.
