R.Jackson, J., concurring

In her dissent in CASA, Justice Jackson cited the Youngstown concurrence as "R. Jackson, J., concurring". I think this is first use of that description. Recent Supreme Court cases that cite Robert Jackson in the text now say "Justice Robert Jackson" rather than "Justice Jackson" to avoid confusion. I do wonder if all of that is necessary, in that we all know that the current Justice Jackson was not on the Court 75 years ago.

That said, I eagerly await the first cite of H. Jackson. That would be Justice Howell Jackson, who served on the Court from 1893-1895.
