Evan C. Zoldan researches legislation, including legislative power, the legislative process, and statutory interpretation. His work on legislative power questions whether Congress and state legislatures may target named individuals for special treatment. His article on targeted legislation, The Equal Protection Component of Legislative Generality, was selected for presentation at the Yale / Stanford / Harvard Junior Faculty Forum at Yale Law School to represent the category of Constitutional Law: Theoretical Foundations. His work on legislation has been cited by both federal and state appellate courts and in briefs, treatises, and scholarly works. Professor Zoldan has appeared in the national media, including the Washington Post, CNN, and Bloomberg News. Professor Zoldan is a past chair of the Association of American Law Schools Section on Legislation and Law of the Political Process.

Professor Zoldan received his law degree, cum laude, from Georgetown University Law Center, where he served as Notes & Articles Editor of Georgetown’s Law & Policy in International Business journal. He received his B.A., summa cum laude, from New York University, where he studied political philosophy. After law school, Professor Zoldan served as law clerk to judges on the United States Court of Federal Claims and the District of Columbia Court of Appeals. Before joining the faculty of Toledo Law, he worked as an associate at Kirkland & Ellis LLP and as a trial attorney for the United States Department of Justice.
